AMERICA READS/AMERICA COUNTS TUTORING

Getting Paid as an America Reads/America Counts Tutor

Students who obtain a job at schools or agencies under this program must first be sure that they complete the America Reads/America Counts Agreement Form with their supervisor and turn it in to the Student Financial Services. The Student Employment Coordinator then hires tutors using JobX, which allows the Payroll Office to set you up for that position on BannerWeb. Students then complete a timesheet on BannerWeb just as though they are working on campus since Smith College acts as the Paymaster. You must do your timesheets on a bi-weekly basis. All of the schools and agencies under the program have their own position index number and a pay rate of $8.75 an hour, 50 cents higher than the on-campus rate, in part to make up for the FICA withheld from student paychecks and the fact that tutors often have to travel. Any questions regarding pay should be addressed to the Payroll Office, payroll@smith.edu, x2213.
