We are currently looking for passionate instructors and subject matter experts to help us modify and author content for our current courses that focus on eliminating the academic equity gaps specifically experienced by Black, Latinx, Indigenous, and low-income students. Do you love writing engaging activities and assessment questions based on cutting edge and culturally relevant examples? Are you excited to do work that will help students who may struggle through GenEd courses because of a plethora of obstacles? Do you also have a finger on the pulse of current changes in your field?
Our current course titles in progress:
The ideal candidate is someone with lived experience similar to that of the students we are trying to support through our courseware. However, we encourage you to apply if you have a deep passion for equity in education and are excited about these tasks, even if you don’t meet the exact description of our ideal candidate.
This is flexible work that can be done from home, anywhere in the US. The work can be either part-time or full-time and is milestone-based rather than a fixed number of hours per week. Please note this is an Independent Contractor role, and you will receive a 1099.
