Looking for Day Academy Teacher in Largo, FL

Job description: Day Academy Teacher
The perfect part-time position for changing lives
Day Academy at GradePower Learning Largo is a homeschool support program for students in 3rd-12th grade.
We need a passionate, energetic instructor who enjoys making a difference in the lives of students without the headaches of a formal school system. Students work on their individualized program at their own pace, so you know you are helping them make gains they were unable to make in a traditional classroom.
All parent contact is done by Day Academy coordinators, so all you have to do is teach. Our curriculum is proprietary, and minimal planning is required.
