K–12 Enrichment Instructor (Independent Contractor)

Concorde Education • Riverside, CA

3d • $50 - $65 • Onsite

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 instructional assignments. Teaching certification 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 skills, and other specialties. Assignments vary by school and include their own schedule, student population, instructional goals, and program requirements. Some provide curriculum, lesson plans, supplies, or guidelines; others allow instructors to develop suitable learning activities using their expertise.

Assignments are generally 1–4 instructional hours per week over 8–10 weeks, though schedules and duration depend on the school program. Most assignments offer $50–$65 per instructional hour, while the posting also lists a salary of $50–$100 per hour. Specific compensation is communicated before acceptance and depends on the assignment and other relevant factors. Opportunities arise throughout the academic year; applying or completing screening and onboarding does not guarantee an assignment or future work. Engagements are subject to applicable screening and clearance requirements, school approval when required, and written confirmation of the assignment.
