K–12 Enrichment Instructor (Independent Contractor)
About The Position
Concorde Education seeks independent contractor instructors for current and future school-based enrichment programs serving K–12 students. Instructors share subject expertise and practical skills through part-time assignments at schools and community partner locations. Certification as a teacher is not necessarily required; relevant experience in professional practice, coaching, tutoring, mentoring, youth development, or specialized instruction 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, and practical or career skills. Assignments vary by school in schedule, student population, instructional goals, and program requirements. Some provide curriculum, lesson plans, supplies, or instructional guidelines, while others allow instructors to develop suitable learning activities using their own expertise. These opportunities are generally part-time, commonly involving 1–4 instructional hours weekly over 8–10 weeks. Most assignments offer $50–$65 per instructional hour, though actual rates and schedules vary by opportunity. Concorde Education maintains an instructor network and may contact applicants whose qualifications match programs as they become available. Applying, screening, or completing a profile does not guarantee selection, an assignment, hours, compensation, or future engagements. Any engagement is subject to applicable screening and clearance requirements, school approval when required, and written confirmation of the specific assignment.
