Reading Intervention Specialist $60,000 USD/year Pay is set based on global value, not the local market.
Most roles = hourly rate x 40 hrs x 50 weeks
Description
You recognize the shift. The instant a learner stops making guesses and begins reading with intention. They glance up and declare, "I've got this." If that's the experience you want to create daily, this role will resonate with you.
Unbound is a remote-first online school designed for genuine progress, not compliance with hours logged. We're rethinking student learning so advancement happens faster, engagement deepens, and outcomes become measurable and real.
Most of your time will be spent facilitating high-impact intervention sessions. The remainder will involve leading brief motivational check-ins that maintain student momentum and goal achievement. This position fits individuals who value independence, immediate feedback cycles, and visible results. It won't suit those seeking a rigid template or avoiding performance data.
If your aim is to help students with reading challenges achieve substantial progress—and you value the flexibility to customize your methods for each learner—we want to hear from you.
What you will be doing
- Create and facilitate virtual small-group and individual reading intervention sessions for grades 3–8 students
- Leverage reading assessment data to identify fluency and comprehension deficits and modify instruction promptly
- Adapt activities to accommodate various reading levels, including accommodations for dyslexia and associated reading challenges
- Monitor student progress with clarity and consistency, using findings to inform subsequent session planning
- Conduct structured motivational check-ins designed to foster confidence, resilience, and satisfaction in development
What you will NOT be doing
- Deliver large-scale, whole-class instruction or present material from a rigid curriculum
- Implement a pre-packaged program without modification based on student response and live feedback
- Function as a passive "technology supervisor" lacking substantive teaching and relationship-building
- Depend on superficial incentives that fail to cultivate enduring motivation
Key responsibilities
Take ownership of measurable outcomes for grades 3–8—documented improvements in fluency and comprehension—through personalized virtual interventions and motivational support that strengthens student 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.
