Rocli Learning Academy is a small, specialized learning academy created for autistic and neurodivergent children who need a more individualized, supportive, and flexible learning environment.
We serve children who may not thrive in traditional school settings and need support with academics, communication, life skills, social development, independence, and emotional regulation.
We are currently hiring a Part-Time Assistant Learning Guide to support our Lead Learning Guide in providing individualized instruction and daily support to students in our Roswell learning center and partner ABA Pod locations.
Position Overview
The Assistant Learning Guide works alongside the Lead Learning Guide to help create a positive, engaging, and structured learning environment for autistic and neurodivergent students.
This is not a traditional classroom assistant position. Every child learns differently, and our approach is individualized, flexible, and relationship-based. Some students may be working on reading or math, while others may be focusing on communication, emotional regulation, social interaction, executive functioning, or daily living skills.
The Assistant Learning Guide plays an important role in helping students stay engaged, successful, and supported throughout the day.

- Supporting the Lead Learning Guide during small-group instruction
- Providing one-on-one assistance to students as needed

- Supporting students with emotional regulation and sensory needs
- Working alongside ABA therapists when students receive therapy support during the day
- Assisting in ABA Pod locations when assigned
- Preparing classroom materials and learning activities
- Helping maintain a clean, organized, and welcoming learning environment
- Supervising students during breaks, lunch, and movement activities
- Recording observations and sharing student progress with the Lead Learning Guide
- Assisting with student check-in and dismissal
- Helping create a calm, positive, and encouraging environment for every learner
