Job Description

English Educator Position

We're looking for a creative, enthusiastic English educator who loves helping young people become confident readers, writers, and communicators. This is a unique opportunity to work one-on-one with students ages 10–16 in a homeschooling environment where you'll have the freedom to build lessons, explore ideas, and make English meaningful.

  • Build a custom English curriculum from the ground up based on each student's skill level, interests, learning style, and goals.
  • Develop strong reading and writing skills through literature, creative writing, grammar, vocabulary, and meaningful discussion.
  • Teach students to think critically by helping them analyze what they read, develop their own ideas, and communicate those ideas clearly.
  • Recognize gaps in understanding and adapt your teaching approach when a student needs a different explanation, challenge, or way of learning.
  • Create a positive learning environment where students feel comfortable sharing ideas, making mistakes, asking questions, and developing their voice.
  • Take ownership of the student's growth by preparing meaningful lessons, tracking progress, building strong study habits, and communicating with parents.

Qualifications:

  • Strong proficiency in English, writing, and communication; a related degree is highly preferred.
  • Previous experience tutoring, teaching, homeschooling, or mentoring students ages 10–16.
  • Strong ability to explain complex concepts clearly and engage students in meaningful discussion.
  • Creative, patient, dependable, organized, and comfortable working independently.

Schedule & Compensation:

  • Schedule: Approximately 8–10 hours per week (schedule may be flexible).
  • Location: In-person at the student's home in Leeds, Utah
  • Pay: $35–$50 an hour.
