About The Position

OpenEd is seeking Indiana-certified teachers with a Music endorsement for a part-time, flexible, work-from-home opportunity. This role involves remote teaching responsibilities and required in-person testing support within Indiana. OpenEd is a leading provider of personalized K–12 educational programs, partnered with innovative public school districts to offer tuition-free, flexible learning plans. Teachers play a key role in supporting students through their educational journey, providing encouragement, accountability, and individualized support. This is a non-traditional teaching role that emphasizes mentorship, flexibility, and personalized support rather than a single classroom or fixed course load. Assignments are based on student and program needs and may not always align directly with a teacher’s specific endorsement. Teachers should expect regular synchronous work with students, ongoing communication with students and parents, and grading responsibilities.
