K–12 Enrichment Instructor (Independent Contractor)
About The Position
Concorde Education is seeking individuals to join its network of independent contractor instructors for current and future school-based enrichment programs. Instructors lead specialized learning experiences for K–12 students at schools and community partner locations. Programs may cover technology, science and engineering, creative arts, academic development, games and critical thinking, health and recreation, practical skills, and other specialties. A teaching certificate is not necessarily required; relevant professional, instructional, coaching, tutoring, mentoring, or youth-development experience may qualify. Assignments vary by school in schedule, student population, instructional goals, materials, and requirements. Some programs provide curriculum, lesson plans, supplies, or guidelines, while others allow instructors to develop suitable activities using their own expertise. Opportunities are generally part-time, often involving 1–4 instructional hours per week for approximately 8–10 weeks. Most assignments offer $50–$65 per instructional hour, although rates may vary; the specific compensation is communicated before acceptance. Opportunities are available throughout the academic year, but applying or completing onboarding does not guarantee an assignment, hours, compensation, or future engagements.
