Your day-to-day impact:

  • Assist lead teachers in self-contained classrooms, providing personalized guidance to students
  • Work directly with higher-functioning students, offering targeted academic instruction and encouragement
  • Adapt instructional strategies based on student needs and learning plans
  • Maintain records of student progress and collaborate on intervention techniques
  • Contribute to a safe, structured, and empathetic classroom atmosphere

In this role, your contributions are compensated competitively, with pay set between $35-$40 per hour based on experience.

You have the chance to enrich the lives of students and be a valued contributor to their educational journey. If you’re ready to make a meaningful difference and find a position that values your expertise, submit your application today and take the next step toward a fulfilling school-year experience!
