About The Opportunity

Concorde Education is seeking independent instructional contractors to provide mathematics tutoring and academic support services for K–12 students.

This is a potential independent contractor assignment, not an employee position. Contractors may choose whether to apply for, accept, decline, or ignore available opportunities.

Assignments vary by school, grade level, schedule, curriculum, student needs, classroom resources, and program objectives.

Concorde may provide curriculum guidance, lesson-plan suggestions, instructional resources, intervention materials, or program objectives. Contractors may use their professional judgment to adapt instruction within the assignment scope and applicable site requirements.

Assignment Scope

• Plan and facilitate engaging, age-appropriate mathematics tutoring sessions for individual students or small groups;
• Support students in developing foundational and grade-level mathematics skills through structured instruction, guided practice, and targeted intervention;
• Adapt instruction based on student performance, grade level, site requirements, available resources, and program objectives;
• Assist students with skill development, homework support, assessment preparation, mathematical reasoning, and confidence-building activities, where applicable;
• Maintain a safe, respectful, inclusive, and age-appropriate learning environment;
• Communicate assignment-related needs or significant concerns with Concorde and school staff, as appropriate;
• Complete a brief session completion form after each scheduled session; and
• Follow applicable site safety, visitor, classroom, technology, emergency, and student-protection procedures.

Example Program Topics

• Number sense, place value, and mathematical fluency;
• Addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division strategies;
• Fractions, decimals, percentages, ratios, and proportional reasoning;
• Integers, rational numbers, and introductory algebra concepts;
• Expressions, equations, inequalities, functions, and problem-solving strategies;
• Geometry, measurement, area, volume, coordinate graphs, and spatial reasoning;
• Data analysis, statistics, graph interpretation, and mathematical modeling;
• Homework support, assessment preparation, study skills, and test-taking strategies; and
• Building mathematical confidence, perseverance, accuracy, and logical reasoning.

Specific curriculum, grade-level standards, instructional materials, assessment expectations, and student support needs vary by assignment.

Qualifications

Preferred qualifications include:

• At least 60 college credits, where required by the applicable assignment or site;
• Strong competency in mathematics appropriate to the assigned grade level(s);
• Experience teaching, tutoring, coaching, mentoring, or leading activities with school-age students;
• Strong communication, organization, and classroom facilitation skills;
• Availability to provide services for the accepted assignment schedule and communicate schedule issues as soon as reasonably practicable; and
• Ability to explain mathematical concepts clearly while adapting instruction to meet diverse learning needs.

Preferred backgrounds may include certified teachers, mathematics educators, tutors, intervention specialists, college students studying mathematics or education, engineers, scientists, accountants, STEM professionals, and others with relevant instructional or quantitative experience.

Materials and Resources

Assignments may utilize school-provided curriculum materials, textbooks, intervention resources, manipulatives, Chromebooks, calculators, educational software, lesson plans, assessment tools, and other instructional resources, where available.

Contractors may use their own instructional methods and materials when appropriate, safe, age-appropriate, lawful, and consistent with the assignment scope and site requirements.

Purchases requiring reimbursement must be approved in writing by Concorde before they are incurred.

Compensation

Compensation varies by assignment and agreed contractor terms. Many opportunities pay $50+ per completed instructional service hour with students.

Contractors may propose their desired compensation rate when applying. When proposing a rate, contractors should consider the overall assignment scope, including anticipated preparation, planning, commute, materials, schedule, and other business considerations.

Concorde may accept the proposed rate, decline the application, or provide a counteroffer based on the budget for the specific assignment.

Unless otherwise approved in writing, compensation is based on completed instructional service hours with students.

Payment for completed services is generally made by direct deposit on the fifteenth day of the month following the month in which services were completed, unless otherwise stated in the accepted assignment terms or required by applicable law.

Equal Opportunity

Concorde Education considers contractor applicants without regard to any status protected by applicable federal, state, or local law and is committed to respectful, inclusive, and student-centered programming.
