Learning Coach — Adventures in Academics
Boys Farm, Inc. | Newberry, South Carolina
About Boys Farm
Boys Farm is a Christian residential children's home dedicated to providing hope and healing to children in crisis. Through our three core program, focused on biblical family-centric residential care, we walk alongside kids as they rebuild their lives in a safe, faith-centered community.
The Role
Boys Farm is seeking a caring, dependable Learning Coach to support students in our Adventures in Academics micro-school, operated in partnership with Cyber Academy of South Carolina. This isn't a traditional classroom-teaching role — you'll be the on-site guide who helps students stay engaged, on-track, and encouraged through their individualized online coursework, all within a warm, family-style learning environment.
What You'll Do
- Supervise and support students daily as they complete Cyber Academy of SC coursework in an on-campus learning environment
- Monitor academic progress, attendance, and engagement; flag students who are falling behind
- Provide one-on-one or small-group help with lessons, reading, and assignments
- Communicate regularly with Cyber Academy teachers regarding student progress and needs
- Create a structured, encouraging daily routine that balances academic rigor with emotional support
- Help maintain a physical learning space that's organized, safe, and conducive to focus
- Model Christian character and be a stable, trustworthy adult presence in students' lives
What We're Looking For
- A heart for at-risk and hurting children, and alignment with Boys Farm's Christian mission
- Associate's or Bachelor's degree preferred (education, child development, or related field a plus, but not required if you bring the right experience and character)
- Experience working with children is required
- Comfortable with basic technology and online learning platforms
- Strong communication skills and the ability to work as part of a team with residential and clinical staff
- Patient, consistent, and calm under pressure
- Must pass a background check consistent with working in a residential childcare setting
Why Boys Farm
- Be part of a mission-driven team that sees Gospel centered, real transformation in kids' lives
- Work in a supportive, faith-centered community on a beautiful campus in Newberry, SC
Pay: $20.00 - $22.00 per hour
Work Location: In person
