K–12 Enrichment Instructor (Independent Contractor)
About The Position
Concorde Education is building a network of independent contractor instructors for current and future enrichment programs at K–12 schools and community partner locations. Instructors share subject expertise and practical skills with students through part-time, school-based assignments. A teaching certificate is not necessarily required; relevant professional, coaching, tutoring, mentoring, youth development, or specialized instructional experience may qualify. Programs may cover technology and innovation, science and engineering, creative arts, academic development, games and critical thinking, health and recreation, practical and career skills, or other specialties requested by partner schools. Assignment schedules, student populations, instructional goals, materials, and requirements vary. Some programs provide curriculum, lesson plans, supplies, and guidelines; others allow instructors to develop suitable activities using their own expertise. Assignments commonly involve approximately 1–4 instructional hours per week over 8–10 weeks, though hours and duration depend on the school program. Compensation is typically $50–$65 per instructional hour, with actual rates varying by assignment and communicated before acceptance. The posting also lists a salary range of $50–$100 per hour. This posting describes potential independent contractor engagements, not guaranteed assignments or employment. Opportunities depend on program demand, qualifications, location, schedule compatibility, school requirements, screening and clearance, and any required school approval. Application and onboarding steps do not guarantee selection, hours, compensation, future engagements, or continued assignments.
