You will facilitate small-group literacy sessions at a school designed around the passions of young gamers, combining phonics teaching, adaptive reading technology, and personalized coaching to inspire K-2 students to love reading as much as they love playing games.

Austin brings live music, mild winters, scenic hill country paths, and a dynamic education innovation community that you will become part of.
