We are a start-up language tutoring company that is looking for a Scheduling / Customer Service Coordinator. This is a long-term position. Initial workload is as little as 5 hours per week, but may increase along with the growth of the company.
The job involves communicating with customers and other employees via email and messaging. No phone work is required.

- Schedule a lesson using our online system
- Reschedule lessons if needed
2. Respond to customer inquiries (30% of job)
