What is an online tutor job?

An online tutor job with Edutara is part-time tuition you give from home over a live video call, one tutor with one learner. The lesson follows the learner's own syllabus and textbooks, whether that is a CBSE Class 8 science chapter, an ICSE / ISC paper, a state board course, JEE Main or NEET-UG revision, or a college student's semester subject. You explain on a shared screen or a whiteboard app, the learner holds written work up to the camera or sends a photo, and Edutara arranges the learner, the timing and the payment.

  • One learner on the call, so every minute goes to that learner's doubts
  • Teach from any city, town or village with a steady video connection
  • India runs on a single time zone, IST, so a slot means the same hour for both of you
  • Learners range from Class 1 to adults, across CBSE, ICSE / ISC and state boards
  • Edutara finds the learner and handles the money; you prepare and teach
Requirements

What a strong online tutor brings

Teaching through a screen asks for the same subject command as a home visit, plus a setup that keeps the call clear for a full lesson. Degrees, B.Ed and years of experience are left out of the form.

Command of your subject

  • -You can solve and explain the chapters you offer without reading from a guide
  • -You know how the learner's board sets its papers, CBSE, ICSE / ISC or a state board
  • -For exam aspirants, you have worked through JEE Main, NEET-UG or CUET-UG level questions yourself
  • -College students who are strong in a subject are welcome to apply

A setup that holds a lesson

  • -A laptop, tablet or phone with a working camera and microphone
  • -An internet connection that holds a video call for the length of a lesson
  • -A way to write where the learner can see it: a shared screen, a whiteboard app or paper held to the camera
  • -A quiet corner where the learner hears you clearly

Patience on a screen

  • -You check understanding often, because a confused face is harder to read on video
  • -You can talk a learner through a problem step by step until they reach the answer
  • -You keep to the agreed slot and log in on time

Why tutors choose to teach online with Edutara

Online lessons remove the commute and widen the map. Your subject can reach a learner in a far corner of India the same evening you finish your own classes.

Learners from every corner of India

Your town no longer limits who you teach. A tutor in Kerala and a learner in Assam meet on the same call, and a small-town graduate can teach a metro student.

No travel time between lessons

With no ride across town, two lessons can sit back to back, and the hour you would spend in traffic goes into preparing the next chapter.

One learner, full attention

The call has two people on it. You set the pace by that learner's doubts, revisit a weak chapter, and move ahead the moment it clicks.

Lessons that fit around your day

Evenings after college, early mornings before work, or weekend blocks: you tell Edutara the hours you keep free, and offers arrive for those slots.

Free official material to teach with

NCERT puts its Class I to XII textbooks online as free PDFs, and OLabs offers physics, chemistry, biology and maths simulations you can share on screen.

Edutara handles billing for you

The learner pays Edutara, and Edutara pays you. You never chase a fee or discuss money on the call, so the lesson stays about the subject.

Tutor Application Process

From application to your first online class

Five plain steps take you from the form to a live lesson. No documents are asked for when you apply, and there is no test to sit.

  1. Fill in the short form

    A few minutes

    Share your name, contact details and the subjects and classes you want to teach online. It is free and takes a few minutes.

  2. Watch your inbox

    An email from Edutara arrives with the next steps, so keep an eye on the address you gave in the form.

  3. Your application is reviewed

    Edutara reads what you teach and the hours you keep free, so the online learners offered to you match your subjects and your clock.

  4. Meet your learner in the first class

    Edutara connects you with a learner who needs your subject online. In the first class you meet on screen, learn where they stand and set the pace for the weeks ahead.

  5. Teach, log and get paid

    Carry on with the agreed slots, log each lesson after the call ends, and Edutara pays you for every lesson you teach.

Applying is free, and joining stays free.

8 questions answered

  1. Which subjects and classes can I teach online with Edutara?

    Any subject you know well. Learners come from Class 1 to Class 12 on CBSE, ICSE / ISC and state boards, from JEE Main, JEE Advanced, NEET-UG, CUET-UG and state CET preparation, from college courses, and from adults learning a language or a work skill. In the form you list the subjects and levels you are confident teaching, and offers follow that list.

  2. Do I need a degree or teaching experience to tutor online?

    Edutara looks for one thing: that you can explain your subject clearly to one learner on a video call. The form asks for no degree, B.Ed or set years of experience. College students, graduates, retired teachers and teachers working outside schools all apply.

  3. I live in a small town. Can I still teach online for Edutara?

    Yes. Online lessons are open to tutors from anywhere in India, and what decides your place is your subject and a connection that holds a video call. TRAI reported over 100 crore broadband subscribers in India at the end of June 2026, and many of them are learners who take tuition on screen.

  4. How do time slots work if the learner lives in another state?

    India keeps one time zone, Indian Standard Time at UTC+05:30, with no daylight saving. A 7 pm slot is 7 pm for you and for the learner whether you sit in Chennai, Kolkata or Jaipur, so there is nothing to convert.

  5. What equipment do I need for online tuition?

    A laptop, tablet or phone with a camera and a microphone, and an internet connection that keeps a video call steady for a full lesson. To explain, you can share your screen or use a whiteboard app. Learners show their written work by holding it up to the camera or sending a photo.

  6. Can I teach online alongside my college classes or a day job?

    Yes, and many online tutors do exactly that. The work is part-time. You tell Edutara which hours you keep free, such as weekday evenings or weekend mornings, and the class offers you receive sit inside those hours.

  7. How does pay work for online lessons?

    Every class offer states its rate before you accept it, and rates vary from one class to the next. Once you teach a lesson and it is confirmed, Edutara pays you for it. The learner pays Edutara, so you never collect money from a learner or talk about fees on the call.

  8. What happens if a learner and I turn out to be a poor match?

    It can show at the first class or a few months in. If the learner wants a different tutor, Edutara arranges one free of charge at any point, still pays you for every lesson you taught and confirmed, and you stay open for offers that fit your subject and style better.
