Concorde Education • Palo Alto, CA

1d • $50 - $100 • Onsite

About The Position

Concorde Education partners with schools and community organizations to provide enrichment experiences for elementary, middle, and high school students. The company is expanding its network of instructors for current and upcoming independent contractor instructional assignments in subjects including education, technology, STEM, the arts, athletics, academics, skilled professions, and other specialty areas. Traditional classroom teaching experience is not required for every program; relevant experience may come from teaching, coaching, tutoring, mentoring, professional practice, camps, youth organizations, private instruction, or similar settings.

Assignments are offered as partner needs arise and vary in grade level, enrollment, schedule, duration, curriculum, instructional expectations, and subject matter. Programs typically run approximately 8–10 weeks, with rolling start opportunities during the school year. Instructors work in person at partner schools and community-based locations, typically delivering 1–4 instructional hours per week. Compensation is established individually by assignment. Most assignments pay $50–$65 per instructional hour, while the posting lists a salary range of $50–$100 per hour; applicable compensation is communicated before an assignment is accepted.

This posting is for consideration for independent contractor assignments and does not guarantee placement, assignment offers, minimum hours, future assignments, or continued engagement. Additional screening, documentation, onboarding, background review or clearance procedures, school-partner approval, schedule compatibility, and written assignment confirmation may apply. Concorde Education is committed to equal opportunity and considers qualified applicants in accordance with applicable law.
