Innovative Learning Educator

Salary Range: $72,000.00 To $85,000.00 Annually

Michigan Hispanic Collaborative (MiHC) is hiring an excellent, mission-driven Innovative Learning Educator to bring Everything to Win to life in the classroom. This role is for someone who brings both heart and discipline: a skilled educator who builds strong classroom culture, delivers engaging instruction, adapts to student needs, works as part of a team, and is accountable for student growth and outcomes.

About MiHC and Everything to Win

MiHC exists to economically empower first-generation students and young professionals by helping them build the knowledge, relationships, confidence, and support needed to move from aspiration to opportunity. Everything to Win (ETW) is MiHC's postsecondary decision-making infrastructure. ETW helps students recognize their strengths, understand their options, build critical competencies, and make informed decisions about life after high school, including college, credentials, training, military or service, career pathways, and employment with advancement potential.

ETW is not a single class, workshop, coaching program, or handoff. It is a structured, team-based model that connects classroom learning, coaching, family engagement, post-secondary planning, college success, future pathways, career exposure, and long-term economic mobility. MiHC is building a consistent, scalable, outcomes-focused model grounded in purpose, clarity, and follow-through.

How We Work:
One Team

No part of the student journey is outside the work. If a student's decision, barrier, or next step affects their future, it belongs to the team. This does not mean every person does every task. It means every team member understands the full student journey, makes warm handoffs, communicates across roles, and does not treat student barriers as someone else's problem.

About the Role

The Innovative Learning Educator leads ETW classroom instruction and helps students build the competencies they need to make informed decisions about life after high school. The Educator delivers engaging, student-centered lessons aligned to MiHC curriculum and creates classroom experiences where students practice critical thinking, communication, collaboration, self-advocacy, financial literacy, social and cultural capital, career exploration, and post-secondary decision-making. This role requires strong classroom presence, cultural responsiveness, instructional skill, relationship- building, and the ability to translate curriculum into meaningful student practice.

The Innovative Learning Educator works closely with College Access Coaches, College Success Coaches, Future Pathways Coaches, paraprofessionals, families/caregivers, school partners, and MiHC leadership so classroom learning connects to coaching, student plans, and post-secondary follow-through.

The Innovative Learning Educator primarily serves high school students in the ETW classroom but must stay connected to the full ETW student journey so classroom learning is not isolated from college access, future pathways, college success, career exposure, family engagement, and long-term economic mobility.

The Kind of Educator We Are Looking For

Students already bring talent, culture, intelligence, resilience, family wisdom, and ambition. They do not need a classroom that lowers expectations or treats them as problems to solve. They need an educator who can create structure, build trust, make learning relevant, ask tough questions, hold high expectations, and help students practice the decisions, habits, and competencies that shape their futures. The right person is reflective, resourceful, accountable, curious, culturally responsive, consistent, and collaborative.

This is not "good intentions" work. It requires strong teaching, thoughtful preparation, classroom culture-building, data-informed reflection, and the ability to own outcomes while operating as part of a team.

What You Will Do

• Deliver engaging, student-centered lessons aligned to the ETW curriculum created by MiHC and partners.
• Help students practice critical thinking, communication, collaboration, self-advocacy, financial literacy, cultural capital, social capital, and postsecondary decision-making through classroom activities and reflection.
• Use discussion, projects, experiential learning, storytelling, life design, financial decision-making, career exploration, and future-planning activities to help students connect concepts to real choices.
• Create an inclusive, supportive, culturally…
