Remote Elementary School Teacher
Job Description
Remote Elementary School Teacher
Curiosity doesn’t stop at the classroom door—and neither do you. You know how to turn a screen into a stage, a moment into a memory, and a lesson into something students carry with them for a lifetime. This is more than a remote teaching role. It’s an opportunity to create joy in learning for children who are miles apart but right in front of you.
You’re someone who thrives on structure yet leads with heart. You’ll bring clarity to daily routines, emotional support to developing minds, and momentum to learning that might otherwise stall. From phonics to fractions, from science experiments to social skills, you make it stick.
What You’ll Actually Do Each Day
No two days are exactly the same, but every one of them matters. You’ll craft moments that move students forward, helping them feel successful and seen—whether it’s their first day logging in or their hundredth.
- Plan lessons that meet standards but still leave room for wonder
- Guide students through stories, numbers, and nature with real curiosity
- Check in on how each child is doing—then adapt instruction to meet them there
- Foster a digital space where routines feel familiar, safe, and joyful
- Use hands-on projects, virtual games, and student voice to drive engagement
- Nurture independent thinking and responsible digital citizenship
Who’s Got Your Back
Great teaching never happens in isolation. You’ll join a community of remote educators who swap ideas, build curriculum together, and push each other to improve. Support is woven into every part of your week.
- Meet weekly with your grade-level team to align instruction and celebrate wins
- Collaborate with specialists who ensure access for every learner
- Receive ongoing coaching from instructional leaders who listen and guide
The Tools That Keep You Connected
We don’t expect you to do it all alone—or with the wrong tools. Here’s what you’ll use to keep kids engaged and learning smoothly:
- Google Classroom for assignments, materials, and parent communication
- Zoom for interactive instruction, one-on-one sessions, and class meetings
- Apps like Nearpod, Flip, and Kahoot bring learning to life
- Seesaw for portfolios and authentic student reflections
- Slack for internal communication and Notion for curriculum resources
We’ll walk you through the tech so you feel confident, not overwhelmed.
The Difference You’ll Make
Whether it’s calming nerves on the first day of school or celebrating a student’s first chapter book, you’ll be a consistent presence in a child’s life. You help kids believe in their potential—especially when things feel uncertain.
- Create routines that help students feel grounded and ready to learn
- Use visuals, storytelling, and tone to bring warmth to every lesson
- Coach social-emotional skills that stick well beyond the school year
- Offer feedback that inspires persistence, not perfectionism
- Partner with families to create a shared sense of progress and pride
What You Bring to the Table
We’re not after superheroes—we’re excited to meet someone who brings commitment, perspective, and a strong sense of purpose. You meet kids where they are, and you never stop learning yourself.
- Certified to teach elementary grades (state-issued license required)
- Classroom experience, ideally with remote teaching exposure
- Comfort with virtual classroom management and tech troubleshooting
- Clear communication that balances kindness with consistency
- Willingness to reflect, receive coaching, and evolve your practice
Your Path to Growth
We invest in your development like we do our students’. You’ll have the space to stretch professionally, step into leadership moments, and follow pathways that build on your strengths.
- Weekly professional development grounded in real-time feedback
- Access to mentoring, peer observations, and career planning
- Opportunities to pilot curriculum, lead team sessions, or mentor others
A Story That Stays With Us
One of our teachers welcomed a student who had been withdrawn from and bounced between schools. Two weeks in, he was showing up early to class, sharing during circle time, and reading out loud with pride. His mother emailed: “You gave him confidence I hadn’t seen in years.”
That’s the heart of what we do. Not perfect days, but powerful ones.
