Reading Interventionist   $60,000 USD/year

Description

You recognize the shift. The instant a learner moves from guessing to reading with purpose. They meet your eyes and say, "I've got this." If that moment is what you want to create daily, this role will resonate.

Unbound is a remote-first online school focused on genuine progress, not just time logged. We're rethinking student learning so they advance more quickly, engage with the material, and graduate with measurable confidence.

In most weeks, you'll facilitate high-leverage intervention sessions. During the remainder, you'll conduct brief motivation touchpoints that keep learners focused and reaching benchmarks. This position is ideal for those who value independence, rapid feedback, and visible results. It's not suited to anyone seeking a rigid script or avoiding data-informed practice.

If your goal is to help struggling readers achieve substantive progress—and you seek the latitude to customize your methods for each learner—we'd welcome the conversation.

What you will be doing

  • Plan and facilitate virtual small-group and individual reading intervention sessions for learners in grades 3–8
  • Leverage reading assessment data to identify fluency and comprehension deficits and modify instruction rapidly
  • Tailor activities to span multiple reading levels, including accommodations for dyslexia and associated reading challenges
  • Monitor progress with clarity and consistency, then use that data to inform subsequent sessions
  • Facilitate structured motivation touchpoints that cultivate confidence, perseverance, and pride in development

What you will NOT be doing

  • Deliver large, full-class lessons or present from a static curriculum
  • Implement a scripted program without responding to student needs and immediate feedback
  • Function as a passive "software monitor" lacking substantive instruction and relationship
  • Depend on superficial incentives that fail to cultivate enduring motivation

Key responsibilities

Take ownership of outcomes for grades 3–8—quantifiable improvements in fluency and comprehension—by providing tailored virtual interventions and motivation guidance that fosters confidence.

Candidate requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in education, literacy, or a closely related field
  • Reading intervention certification or endorsement (e.g., Arizona Reading Specialist K-12 or equivalent state certification)
  • Specialized training or certification in dyslexia intervention (or related structured literacy approaches)
  • At least 2 years of experience delivering small-group or one-on-one reading interventions for students in grades 3–8
  • Experience supporting students with dyslexia or related reading difficulties
  • Ability to interpret progress monitoring data and use it to plan and adjust instruction
  • Strong ability to engage and manage students in a virtual setting through clear, motivating communication
  • Available to work in a hybrid capacity in Arizona as needed.
