About The Position

OpenEd is seeking Utah-certified teachers, endorsed in Driver's Education, for a flexible, work-from-home opportunity. OpenEd is a leading provider of personalized K–12 educational programs, partnered with innovative public school districts to offer tuition-free, flexible learning plans. We empower students and families to tailor their educational experiences while fostering curiosity, independence, and lifelong learning. This is a non-traditional teaching role that emphasizes mentorship, flexibility, and personalized support rather than a single classroom or fixed course load. Teachers will work directly with students and families to provide encouragement, accountability, and individualized support while collaborating with colleagues across the program. Assignments are based on student and program needs and will not always align directly with a teacher’s specific endorsement. Teachers should expect regular synchronous work with students, ongoing communication with students and parents, and grading responsibilities aligned with program expectations.
