One student attends five days per week and benefits from individualized academic instruction, autism-informed teaching, communication support, and ABA-based strategies. Two additional elementary-aged students attend approximately three days per week.

- Teach reading, phonics, writing, math, science, social studies, and other elementary subjects
- Develop and implement engaging weekly lesson plans

- Incorporate outdoor and community–based learning
- Participate in library visits and occasional educational field trips
- Monitor and document academic and developmental progress
- Maintain a structured, positive, nurturing, and engaging learning environment
- Communicate regularly with the parent regarding progress, challenges, and educational goals

Why You’ll Love This PositionSmall learning environment — maximum of 3 students.
Instead of managing a traditional classroom of 20–30 students, you will have the opportunity to truly get to know each child, identify how they learn best, and provide meaningful individualized instruction.
We believe learning does not have to happen only at a desk. Our students can learn through outdoor exploration, library visits, music, movement, cooking, science experiments, educational outings, hands‑on projects, and their individual interests.
We are looking for someone who combines the skills of a strong educator with the patience and understanding needed to support a child with autism and communication needs.
Schedule & CompensationPay: $25.00–$27.00 per hour, based on education, credentials, and experience
Schedule: Monday–Friday 7:30 AM–4:00 PM Full-Time
