About the Role:

We are looking for a passionate, patient, and creative Lead Teacher to join our team! At Pi Learning Academy, we serve a unique student population—including children on the autism spectrum, gifted learners, and twice-exceptional students.

Your goal will be to lead a small group, tailoring lessons to individual strengths and ensuring every child feels supported and inspired.

This is a part-time role with a consistent weekly schedule:

Monday, Tuesday, Thursday: 12:00 PM – 3:00 PM

(Wednesdays are reserved for our signature community field trips)

Personalized Instruction:
Deliver curriculum (FLVS, customized plans, or parent-provided) at each student’s unique pace.

STEM-Focused Learning:
Lead hands-on projects that make math, science, and art come alive.

Supportive Environment:
Use positive behavior strategies to help students navigate social and academic challenges.

Growth Tracking:
Maintain student portfolios to showcase progress and accomplishments.

Licensure:
Must be a licensed teacher in Hillsborough County.

Certification:
Valid Florida Teaching Certificate (ESE or Elementary Education preferred).

Experience:

Previous experience working with students with autism or gifted learners is highly preferred.

The Right Vibe:
You should be adaptable, energetic, and love seeing "lightbulb moments" in kids who think differently.

Extremely small class sizes (often nearly 1-to-1).

A collaborative, family-inspired atmosphere.

• The chance to focus on teaching and mentorship rather than classroom management.
