Concorde Education • Providence, RI

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 specialized knowledge and practical skills with students through part-time assignments. A teaching certificate is not necessarily required; relevant professional, coaching, tutoring, mentoring, youth-development, or specialized instructional experience may qualify, depending on the program.

Programs may cover technology and innovation, science and engineering, creative arts, academic development, games and critical thinking, health and recreation, practical and career skills, and other specialties introduced by partner schools. Assignments vary in schedule, student population, instructional goals, and requirements. Some provide curriculum, lesson plans, supplies, or guidelines; others allow instructors to develop suitable activities using their expertise.

Many assignments involve approximately 1–4 instructional hours per week over 8–10 weeks, though hours, duration, and scheduling depend on the school program. Most assignments offer $50–$65 per instructional hour, while actual rates may vary; the compensation for a specific assignment is communicated before acceptance. Opportunities are offered based on qualifications, subject expertise, location, schedule compatibility, school requirements, and program demand. This posting is for potential independent contractor engagements and does not guarantee an assignment, hours, compensation, or continued work. Engagements may be subject to screening, clearance, school approval, and written confirmation.
