Reading Intervention Specialist, Unbound Academy (Remote) - $60,000/year USD

You recognize the shift. The instant a student stops fumbling and begins reading with purpose. They meet your eyes and declare, "I've got this." If that's the kind of work you want to pursue daily, this position will suit you. Unbound is a remote-first online school designed for authentic progress, not hours logged. We're reimagining student learning so they advance more quickly, find satisfaction in the journey, and graduate with measurable confidence. In most weeks, you'll conduct powerful intervention sessions. During the others, you'll facilitate brief motivational touchpoints that maintain student momentum and goal achievement. This position fits those who value independence, rapid feedback cycles, and visible results. It's unsuitable for anyone seeking a predetermined playbook or uncomfortable with data-driven decisions. If you're committed to helping challenged readers achieve substantial progress—and you desire the latitude to customize your methods for each learner—we want to speak with you.
