Job Description

Hello! Bright Minds Inc. is an OSSE licensed HIT (High-Impact Tutoring) provider for the 2024-2025 school year. Our REAL (Racial Equity in Academic Learning) HIT program provides individualized academic programs to students in high-priority DC schools. We are a franchise of the Huntington Learning Center, one of the largest tutoring companies in the country. Our REAL students will each have individualized Huntington programs. Our DC HIT programs last year produced excellent results at our partner schools, with an average of over 5 months of grade level progress per student. We need passionate teachers who are available during the school day for 2-3 hours per day to work with students in 2nd-8th grade. Teachers are not required to work with the full grade range, your give us your preferred range in your interview.

This program is funded by a grant to provide HIT (High-Impact Tutoring) to students in an effort to recover from learning loss during the pandemic. Teachers will work with students in up to a 4 : 1 ratio. You will work with the same small group of students who are assigned to you from beginning to end of the program. The goal of the program is to help students bring their foundational academic skills in reading and math up to grade level. We work closely with the reading specialists at our partner schools to identify the correct starting levels and areas of opportunity for each student. This allows us to put together an individualized program for each student. Then, we adjust each program regularly, based on their scores and your feedback.. We communicate as often as you see fit about your students to make sure we get the most we can out of each session.

Teachers are expected to engage and interact with their students. We are looking for individuals in the community who see the importance of reading fluency and comprehension skills, and are passionate about helping our students. We know that this will make our students more confident and provide the foundation they will need to be successful in all of their classes moving forward. There is no prep, planning or looking for curriculum. You will be paid for simply teaching the assigned program to your assigned students, each at their own pace. Teachers always have the option to adjust their availability as needed.

This is a fantastic opportunity to make a difference in our community. We look forward to sharing more with you about this exciting opportunity!
