Having already served over 150 districts and 45,000 students, Proximity Learning is committed to connecting all learners with the expert teachers they deserve.Proximity Learning facilitates district course subject needs by providing live, real-time, teacher-led instruction through video conferencing software, ensuring students do not miss out on valuable math, world language, SPED, science, or elective subjects. Each student is given access to instruction through a laptop where they can view and interact with their teacher; students and instructors communicate with each other in real-time via webcam and via text-chat.Proximity Learning teachers are the most important part of closely approximating the experience of a traditional brick and mortar classroom setting - we value those with a passion for teaching, the ability to be autonomous, and a strong drive to connect a diverse group of students across the United States with the quality teachers they deserve. Our teachers work from home and get paid a competitive salary based on experience. Additionally, we offer growth opportunities and bonuses based on student success.
