Washington DC is The Nation's Capital and has Much to Offer Educationally

Unlike most U.S. cities, Washington D.C. was established by the Constitution instead of by a settlers. Ultimately George Washington chose the area, but it took a hundred years for the city to be fully developed. Wars usually increased the population of the city. Population grew during the Civil War because Washington became an armed encampment and hospital. With World War II, "government girls" were brought in to fill office positions when the men went to war. Since the 1990's, the population has declined because residents moved to the suburbs. As of 2010, there are 601,723 citizens, with 158,455 students.

Teaching Jobs in Washington D.C.

There are 6,155 teaching jobs within 15 miles of the city and 1,602 positions within Washington proper listed on Simply Hired, as of November 11, 2011. Some of the universities at which you could teach would be Strayer University, Georgetown University, Wesley Theological Seminary, and Johns Hopkins University.

Locations for Tutoring Jobs

There are quite a few places that would be wonderful for tutoring. However, the best spot for working with an individual would be the Library of Congress. With over 33 million items held within its walls, one could study nearly anything. Another great institution to use as a tutoring spot would be the National Archives, which houses some of the most important documents in United States history. Folger Shakespeare Library and Dumbarton Oaks would be other choices at which to tutor.
