A-list celebrity Gwyneth Paltrow and her hubby, front man of the rock band Coldplay, Chris Martin, are seeking the services of a private tutorfor their two young children, 8-year-old Apple, and 6-year-old Moses.
According to British newspaper, The Telegraph, the pay is outstanding -- £62,000 (around $100,000) a year for clocking just four hours a day. The package includes star-calibre accommodation, nine weeks’ vacation, and a myriad travel and health care perks.
Now, before you go and polish off your resume, be sure you possess Gwynie’s prerequisite qualifications ad nauseum.
In the ad, which was recently posted on a specialist website,the ideal candidate for the job must meet a long list of must-haves: a background in classics (including Greek and Latin), fluency in a minimum of three languages (preferably including Mandarinor Japanese). The applicant must also be able to play at least two instruments, and have a “passion for sailing and tennis, art history or martial arts”.
Is that all, you ask? Apparently not. In addition to the stringent criteria above, applicants must also be cognizant in “the history of thought from a philosophical perspective”… Looks like Gwynie is giving Amy Chua a run for her money in the Tiger Mom stakes.
No X-boxes or Transformers in the Paltrow/Martin household, then.
