Concorde Education is seeking independent instructional contractors to provide Anime Club enrichment services for K-12 students.

This is a potential independent contractor assignment, not an employee position. Contractors may choose whether to apply for, accept, decline, or ignore available opportunities.

Assignments vary by school, grade level, schedule, curriculum, available technology, and program objectives.

Concorde may provide curriculum guidance, lesson-plan suggestions, project ideas, instructional resources, or program objectives. Contractors may use their professional judgment to adapt instruction within the assignment scope and applicable site requirements.

• Introduce students to storytelling, visual media analysis, animation, character development, and creative expression through discussion-based and project-based activities;

• Facilitate respectful discussions about themes, characters, artistic techniques, genres, and cultural influences represented in age-appropriate media;
• Support students in creating fan art, character designs, creative writing projects, presentations, club activities, or other final projects, where applicable;
• Maintain a safe, respectful, inclusive, and age-appropriate learning environment;
• Communicate assignment-related needs or significant concerns with Concorde and school staff, as appropriate;

Specific content, media selections, software platforms, and curriculum requirements vary by assignment.

All content utilized must be age-appropriate, school-appropriate, and consistent with site requirements and policies.

• At least 60 college credits, where required by the applicable assignment or site;
• Familiarity with anime, animation, visual storytelling, media studies, pop culture, creative writing, art, or related subject areas;

• Strong communication, organization, discussion facilitation, and classroom management skills;
