K–12 Enrichment Instructor (Independent Contractor)
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 may lead programs in areas such as technology, science, arts, academics, games, health and recreation, and practical or career skills. A teaching certificate is not necessarily required; relevant professional, instructional, coaching, tutoring, mentoring, or youth-development experience may qualify. Assignments vary by school in schedule, student population, goals, and requirements. They generally involve 1–4 instructional hours per week for approximately 8–10 weeks, though hours and duration depend on the specific program. Some assignments provide curriculum, lesson plans, supplies, or guidelines; others allow instructors to use their own expertise and activities. Compensation is determined for each assignment and is communicated before acceptance. The advertisement describes potential independent contractor engagements, not guaranteed work or employment. Assignments depend on qualifications, availability, school requirements, program demand, and applicable screening and clearance procedures.
