About Semporna
An east-coast island-gateway town with national schools and long distances to city tuition, well suited to online lessons.
Sabah’s schools are spread across a vast state, from Kota Kinabalu’s national and Chinese-medium schools to remote interior towns, online lessons close the distance to experienced maths teachers.
Living in Semporna is no barrier to teaching students across Malaysia. What matters to us is how you teach, not how far you are from a city centre.
Inside a lesson
Each lesson is one hour with one student over live video, using a shared whiteboard. You work Paper 1 and Paper 2 questions together and show the student how each mark is earned.
Your students know the work in class but lose marks in the exam. You help them set out working clearly, choose the right formula from the 39 on the exam sheet and use the calculator well.
Part-time means part-time: a few hours a week is fine, and you can change it later.
Requirements
- Real experience teaching SPM Mathematics (KSSM, Form 4 and Form 5)
- Able to work Paper 1 and Paper 2 questions and explain how each mark is earned
- Clear spoken and written English for teaching

Frequently asked questions
Do I have to live in Semporna to apply?
Yes, teachers in Semporna can apply, and so can teachers anywhere else in Malaysia. Every lesson is online and one-to-one, so you teach from home and your students may live in any state.
What is the hourly rate for teachers in Semporna?
The rate is the same wherever you live: from RM50/hr, subject to your experience and availability, with no upper limit. Tell us your expected hourly rate when you apply.
What language are lessons taught in?
Lessons are in English. SPM Mathematics papers are set in both Bahasa Melayu and English, so it helps if you can give a student the Malay term when they need it.
Can I tell you about other subjects or levels I teach?
Yes. The form asks for every subject, level and age group you teach, plus anything else about your experience.
This role is for SPM Mathematics, and the rest helps us understand you as a teacher.
