Note: Due to our audience and the specialized nature of our work, we cannot consider candidates without a completed bachelor’s degree. Please do not apply unless you have already graduated from an accredited college or university, or will graduate by June of 2025.
We offer flexible start dates between June and August, with coaching work available through the beginning of January. We provide three different employment options—each with an income guarantee that reflects hourly editing and coaching expectations. **Click here for a breakdown of our Writing Coach employment options and earning projections.**
Coaches work 5 days a week, but your daily routine, location, and how you divvy up your hours are all up to you! We have a few guidelines and caveats, mostly driven by college application deadlines, but overall, you are in charge of your schedule and are only responsible for completing essays assigned based on your employment option.
In addition to providing insightful and educational written feedback, the majority of our Writing Coaches brainstorm and strategize with students through one-on-one video calls. You will form constructive and impactful relationships with young writers at a pivotal time in their lives, refining their writing skills and helping them understand what makes them unique as individuals while envisioning their future as learners, community members, and leaders.
Note: We are currently only accepting applications from individuals willing and able to participate in one-on-one video calls with their students.
Prompt's Writing Coaches are the best admissions essay coaches in the world. This is not only because of our deliberate, curious, and highly-selective hiring process but also because we offer comprehensive and ongoing training. You’ll learn in community as well as through one-on-one coaching and collaborative instructional webinars.
Writing Coach hourly pay is $25 per hour for new coaches, with tenure-based raises after the first year.
