Teaching Assistant - Business Analytics
Part-time (not a full-time job) | 3 to 6 hours a week | Remote | ₹3,000 to ₹6,000 a week (more for experienced TAs)
Remember that one teacher who made a scary topic suddenly make sense?
Be that person for someone.
At Masai, our students are career switchers, fresh graduates and working professionals who want a better job and a better life. Many of them are one "aha!" moment away from getting there. You could be the one who gives it to them.
What you'll do
- Answer student questions on chat during live classes. Think of it as being the calm, smart friend in the group chat.
- Mentor students in groups and sometimes one-on-one. You help them get unstuck, think like a business person and believe in themselves.
When you'll work
- Weekdays from 8:00 PM
- Weekends
It fits neatly around your day job or research.
Why this matters
Every student has a question they're scared to ask. As their mentor, you're the one they ask without feeling judged. "Dumb" questions are never dumb. Answer one and it clicks. That's the magic: you help someone upskill and change their life.
You might forget the doubt you cleared on a Tuesday night. They won't.
Every good teacher learns twice.
What you should know well
- Analyst thinking: breaking down a vague business problem and asking the right questions
- Business metrics and KPIs: revenue, growth, retention, profitability and how they connect
- Excel or Google Sheets, including cleaning messy data
- SQL

- Dashboards and data visualization (Looker Studio, Power BI or Tableau)
- Storytelling with data: turning numbers into insights and clear recommendations
- Business basics in at least one area, like e-commerce, finance, marketing or product
- Using AI tools smartly in analysis, and checking what they produce
- End-to-end projects: taking raw data all the way to a dashboard and a recommendation

Who can apply
You should be one of these:
