Concorde Education • San Rafael, CA

About The Position

Concorde Education is building a network of independent contractor instructors for current and future school-based K–12 enrichment programs. Instructors share professional knowledge, specialized skills, or subject expertise with students through part-time assignments at schools and community partner locations. A teaching certificate is not necessarily required; relevant experience in coaching, professional practice, tutoring, mentoring, youth development, or specialized instruction may qualify candidates.

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, goals, and requirements vary. Some programs provide curriculum, lesson plans, supplies, or guidelines; others allow instructors to develop suitable activities using their own expertise.

Opportunities are generally part-time, typically involving 1–4 instructional hours per week over approximately 8–10 weeks. Compensation is typically $50–$65 per instructional hour, though actual rates vary by assignment and are communicated before acceptance. Opportunities may arise throughout the academic year. Applying or completing screening and onboarding does not guarantee an assignment, hours, compensation, or future work.
