Job description

OpenEd Teachers play a key role in supporting students through their educational journey. Teachers work directly with students and families to provide encouragement, accountability, and individualized support while collaborating with colleagues across the program.

All OpenEd Teachers share the same core role, regardless of certification or endorsement area. While teachers bring valuable subject‑matter expertise, assignments are based on student and program needs and will not always align directly with a teacher’s specific endorsement.

In addition to their core student group, teachers may take on additional assignments across the program, such as tutoring, small‑group instruction, or other areas of support, based on program needs. Teachers should expect regular synchronous work with students, ongoing communication with students and parents, and grading responsibilities aligned with program expectations.

This is a non‑traditional teaching role that emphasizes mentorship, flexibility, and personalized support rather than a single classroom or fixed course load.

Responsibilities

• Student Support, Instruction & Collaboration
  • Review and grade student learning logs, providing timely, actionable feedback to support student progress
  • Work synchronously with students in 1:1, small‑group, or large‑group settings
  • Mentor and tutor students enrolled in assigned courses
  • Create engaging lessons, activities, or learning opportunities
  • Tailor resources and support to meet individual student needs
  • Identify at‑risk students and coordinate appropriate routes to intervention
  • Communicate with parents to provide guidance and support
  • Attend IEP meetings as needed and collaborate with relevant stakeholders
  • Collaborate with other teachers to share expertise and support students across the program
• Program & Team Contribution
  • Contribute to the program by supporting a core group of assigned students while also taking on additional responsibilities across the program based on team and student needs
  • Participate in a positive, collaborative, team‑oriented environment focused on student success

Required Skills & Qualifications

• Current teaching certification in Texas
• Exceptional verbal and written communication skills
• Strong understanding that every child is unique and benefits from individualized learning
• Kind, organized, patient, and a dependable communicator
• Familiarity with Google Workspace (Gmail, Calendar, Docs, Sheets, Forms, etc.)
• Confidence in the ability to learn various online tools, systems, and programs
• Ability to work independently and meet deadlines with minimal supervision
• Access to a smartphone, high‑speed internet, computer, and webcam
• Eligible to work in the U.S. (but can live/work from any pre‑approved location)

Preferred

• Experience in non‑traditional educational programs
• Residency in Texas preferred, but is not required

Schedule & Availability

• Ability to maintain a regular schedule of 25-27 hours per week
• Availability during core business hours (10:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. MT)
• Synchronous responsibilities may include meetings with students, families, or groups, and will vary based on assigned roles

Additional Information

• Hourly pay starts at $25/hour
• Part‑time benefit eligible employees are offered dental, vision, accident, critical illness, hospital indemnity, voluntary life insurance, retirement (upon meeting requirements), and paid holidays.
• Monthly tech subsidy provided
• Orientation, self‑guided training, and ongoing support will be provided
