Literacy Interventionist   $60,000 USD/year

Description

You recognize the turning point. The instant a student stops fumbling and begins reading with purpose. They meet your eyes and say, "I've got this." If that's the work you're committed to doing daily, this role will suit you well.

Unbound is a remote-first online school designed for genuine progress, not compliance with schedules. We're rethinking student learning so they advance more quickly, find the experience rewarding, and graduate with measurable confidence.

In most weeks, you'll conduct focused intervention sessions. In others, you'll facilitate brief motivational touchpoints that keep students progressing toward their goals. This position fits those who value independence, immediate feedback, and visible results. It's not suited to anyone seeking a prescriptive manual or who avoids working with data.

If you're ready to help struggling readers 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

  • Plan and facilitate virtual small-group and individual reading intervention sessions for students in grades 3–8
  • Leverage reading assessment data to identify fluency and comprehension deficits and modify instruction promptly
  • Adapt instructional activities across varied reading levels, including accommodations for dyslexia and associated reading challenges
  • Monitor progress consistently and transparently, using results to inform subsequent session planning
  • Facilitate structured motivational touchpoints that foster confidence, determination, and pride in achievement

What you will NOT be doing

  • Deliver large, full-class instruction or present from a rigid curriculum
  • Execute a scripted program without responding to individual student needs and live feedback
  • Function as a passive "software facilitator" lacking substantive teaching and rapport
  • 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 motivational guidance 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 methodologies)
  • At least 2 years of experience providing small-group or one-on-one 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 instructional planning and adjustment
  • Demonstrated 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.
