Christian School History Teacher: Part Time, Live, Online

You love history deeply, not only the dates and battles and treaties, but the drama of it, the tension of it, the way God has moved through every human generation. You can explain why the Reformation still matters, get animated about the Constitutional Convention, and help students see God's providence in ways that feel natural rather than tacked on. You believe history is God's story, and you want students to see it that way too. You also love the students themselves. You see teaching as discipleship. You care about the middle schooler who thinks history is boring, the high schooler who has disconnected somewhere along the way, and the student who needs someone to believe in her. You want to walk alongside them, pointing them to Christ while igniting a passion for history they did not know they had. You know when to teach directly, when to run a simulation, and when a well-chosen hook will carry students into the next lesson. You can read the room. You know the difference between a student who is confused and a student who is bored, and you adjust before either one checks out. You want meaningful work that fits your life, three to four days per week, fully remote, with room to grow. You are tech-savvy, energetic, and ready to build something that lasts. The Position and What You’ll Do Your core responsibilities: Teach live virtual history classes to grades 6-12, forty-five to fifty-five minutes each, one or two times per week, using explicit teaching supported by simulations, debates, reenactments, and student discussion Design creative history courses such as "Woman Warriors: From the biblical Deborah to Margaret Thatcher" or "The World's Greatest Baddies," courses that draw students in and give them something worth remembering Select or create curriculum for World History, US History, Ancient History, and other periods Weave biblical worldview naturally throughout your lessons, gospel-oriented rather than only character-oriented, helping students see God's sovereignty, providence, and faithfulness across human events Differentiate instruction for mixed-ability classrooms Build authentic relationships with students and their families, especially those who have lost interest in history somewhere along the way Work with students who have special needs Our Teaching Model We teach using I do, we do, you do. Direct teaching first, so students have the framework before they are asked to apply it. Guided practice second, where simulations, debates, and reenactments give students something to walk through together with the teacher shaping the experience. Independent work third, where students demonstrate understanding on their own. A well-chosen hook can also open a lesson, giving students an experience to attach the teaching to when it comes. Simulations and experiential activities do not replace explicit teaching. They serve it. What This Job Is NOT Not a lecture-based position. If your instinct is to talk for fifty minutes while students take notes, this seat is not for you. We want a teacher who knows when to teach directly, when to stop teaching, and how to read the room well enough to run a simulation without losing it. Not project-based learning, unless it is grounded in explicit teaching first. Experiential activities have their place, and history offers many of them, but they pair with direct instruction rather than replace it. We are not constructivists. Not textbook chapter-by-chapter teaching. There is no rigid scope and sequence. You have creative freedom. Not a full-time position. If you need forty hours and full benefits for a family of four, this will not meet your needs. Not for people who need constant direction. You will be supported, but you must take ownership and run. Not a checkbox Christian role. If biblical worldview integration feels forced or awkward to you, this is not the right fit. We are looking for someone who sees God's hand in history naturally. Qualifications Required: Bachelor's degree in History or related field Teaching certificate, active or lapsed, or willingness to obtain one Teaching experience, whether classroom, tutoring, homeschool, or online Strong content knowledge across US History, World History, and Ancient History Ability to integrate a biblical worldview naturally, gospel-oriented and rooted in God's sovereignty over human events Advanced and strong tech proficiency, including Zoom and its advanced features, learning management systems, and educational technology tools, or a clear ability to learn new technology quickly Preferred: Ability to teach English Language Arts in addition to History, for additional hours Experience leading student trips or group travel Understanding of differentiated instruction for mixed-ability classrooms Compensation and Benefits Competitive hourly rate Guaranteed minimum ten hours per week during the school year, regardless of enrollment Growth potential through course creation, English teaching, team leadership, or eventual trip leadership Paid sick leave 401(k) with company matching Unlimited free classes at Lemons-Aid Learning for your homeschool children, space permitting Fully remote, work from anywhere in the U.S. Flexible schedule, typically three to four days per week Start Date August 2026, depending on availability Collaboration and Community Work alongside a team of educators who share your passion for bringing learning to life Engage actively in the Lemons-Aid community, not as an isolated contractor Contribute your ideas and creativity to strengthen the program Growth Opportunities As the program expands, opportunities may include leading students through the Lincoln Memorial and the Holocaust Museum in D.C., and eventually through Europe or Israel when we teach ancient history. Trip leadership is not required for this role. If you have the energy and adventure for it, that is gravy. Application Process Step 1: Complete our full application, including questions about your ability to integrate a biblical worldview in your teaching Step 2: Finalists create a sample enrichment lesson demonstrating biblical integration, explicit teaching, and experiential learning Step 3: Final interview, where you will teach a portion of your sample lesson Join Us We are looking for someone who loves history, loves kids, has teaching chops, and wants to build something worth building. This role is for the teacher who sees history as God's story and wants to help students see it too. For the teacher who believes teaching is discipleship, and every lesson is an opportunity to point students toward their Creator. If that is you, we would love to hear from you. #J-18808-Ljbffr Lemons-Aid Learning
