About Our Family & Students

We are seeking an engaging, structured, and compassionate In-Home Educator to guide our two children—a 5th grader (elementary) and a 7th grader (middle school)—for the upcoming academic year.

Our goal is to foster a love for learning, critical thinking, and independence through customized instruction. The 5th grader thrives with hands-on learning and multi-sensory activities, while the 7th grader requires a mix of structured academics, executive function support, and deeper independent study in middle school subjects.

Key Responsibilities

Curriculum Implementation & Lesson Planning: Deliver daily, age-appropriate instruction across core subjects including Mathematics, Language Arts/Reading, Science, and Social Studies/History.
Dual-Grade Management: Successfully balances instructional time between an upper-elementary student and a middle school student, blending direct instruction with guided independent study.
Progress Tracking & Assessment: Maintain records of daily attendance, assignments, and academic milestones. Provide regular progress updates to parents.
Iowa Legal Compliance Support: Assist the family in meeting relevant Iowa Private Instruction standards (e.g., maintaining portfolio work samples and supporting annual progress reviews if participating under Competent Private Instruction/CPI).
Executive Functioning & Study Skills: Teach effective organizational habits, goal-setting, and time management—especially for the 7th grader transitioning into advanced middle school material.
Enrichment & Hands-on Learning: Incorporate educational projects, STEM experiments, art, and local field trip planning into the routine.

Education & Qualification RequirementsMandatory Requirements:

Education: Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education, Secondary Education, Curriculum & Instruction, or a related field.
Licensure: Valid Iowa Teaching License (current or recently active) with appropriate endorsements for Elementary (K-6) and/or Middle School (5-8) instruction preferred. (Candidates with valid out-of-state teaching credentials will also be considered.)
Experience: Minimum of 2–3 years of classroom teaching, formal tutoring, or private home-education experience with elementary or middle school age groups.
Background Checks: Ability to pass comprehensive background checks, including state and federal criminal history, child abuse registry, and motor vehicle checks.
Certifications: First Aid and CPR certified (or willing to obtain before start date).

Preferred Qualifications:

Prior experience as a private homeschool teacher or Home School Assistance Program (HSAP) supervising teacher in Iowa
Familiarity with popular open-and-go homeschool curricula

Key Attributes & Soft Skills

Adaptable & Patient: Ability to tailor teaching styles dynamically to match two different learning profiles and energy levels.
Organized & Reliable: Punctual, proactive with daily planning, and consistent in maintaining a structured learning environment.
Collaborative: Excellent communication skills to maintain open dialogue with parents regarding wins, challenges, and curriculum adjustments.

Work Environment & Location

Location: Johnston, Iowa (In-home instruction in a dedicated learning space equipped with supplies, internet, and curriculum materials).
Safe, supportive, and non-smoking household.

How to Apply

Interested candidates should submit the following:

Resume / CV outlining educational background and teaching/tutoring experience.
Cover Letter detailing your teaching philosophy and experience managing multi-grade or in-home instructional settings.
Copy of Teaching License (if applicable).
Professional References (including past employers, principal/supervisors, or private tutoring clients).

Work Location: In person
