Literacy Interventionist   $60,000 USD/year

Description

You recognize the shift. The instant a learner stops making guesses and begins reading with command. They glance up and announce, "I can do this." If that's the work you're after each day, this will be a natural fit.

Unbound is a remote-first online school designed for genuine progress, not hours logged. We're reimagining student learning so they advance more quickly, find joy in the journey, and graduate with measurable confidence.

In most weeks, you'll deliver high-impact intervention sessions. The remainder, you'll facilitate brief motivation touchpoints that keep learners focused and reaching milestones. This position is well-suited to individuals who value independence, rapid feedback cycles, and visible results. It's not appropriate for those seeking a rigid script or who prefer to avoid data-driven work.

If you're committed to helping struggling readers achieve substantial progress—and you value the flexibility to customize your methods for each learner—we'd welcome the opportunity to connect.

What you will be doing

  • Develop and facilitate virtual small-group and individual reading intervention sessions for learners in grades 3–8
  • Leverage reading assessment data to address fluency and comprehension deficits and modify instruction promptly
  • Differentiate learning activities across varied reading levels, including accommodations for dyslexia and associated reading challenges
  • Monitor progress in a transparent, systematic manner and apply the data to inform subsequent sessions
  • Facilitate structured motivation touchpoints that cultivate confidence, resilience, and pride in advancement

What you will NOT be doing

  • Deliver large, whole-class lessons or present from a predetermined curriculum
  • Adhere to a pre-written program without responding to student needs and immediate feedback
  • Serve as a passive "software monitor" lacking meaningful instruction and rapport
  • Depend on superficial rewards that fail to foster enduring motivation

Key responsibilities

Take ownership of outcomes for grades 3–8—quantifiable improvements in fluency and comprehension—through personalized virtual interventions and motivational support that strengthens confidence.

Candidate requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in education, literacy, or a closely related discipline
  • 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 methods)
  • At least 2 years of experience providing small-group or individual reading interventions for students in grades 3–8
  • Experience working with students with dyslexia or related reading difficulties
  • Capability to analyze progress monitoring data and apply it to plan and modify instruction
  • Proven ability to engage and guide students in a virtual environment through clear, motivating communication
  • Available to work in a hybrid capacity in Arizona as needed.
