About The Position

Concorde Education is building a network of independent contractor instructors for current and future enrichment programs serving K–12 students at schools and community partner locations. Instructors share relevant skills, professional expertise, or subject knowledge through assignments that vary by school, student population, instructional goals, and program requirements. A teaching certification is not necessarily required; relevant experience in areas such as coaching, professional practice, tutoring, mentoring, youth development, or specialized instruction 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, and other specialties. Assignments generally involve about 1–4 instructional hours weekly for approximately 8–10 weeks, although schedules and durations vary. Most assignments offer $50–$65 per instructional hour, while the posting also lists a salary range of $50–$100 per hour. The applicable compensation is determined for each opportunity and communicated before acceptance.

Some programs provide curriculum, lesson plans, supplies, or instructional guidelines; others allow instructors to use their own expertise and appropriate activities. Concorde Education may contact applicants whose backgrounds match potential opportunities for screening, documentation, profile setup, and onboarding. Assignments depend on qualifications, subject expertise, geographic availability, scheduling compatibility, school-partner requirements, and program demand. Applying or completing screening or a profile does not guarantee an assignment, hours, compensation, or future engagements. Engagements are subject to applicable screening and clearance requirements, school approval where required, and written confirmation of the specific assignment.
