Digital Music Production Instructor Opportunities

About the role

Concorde Education is seeking independent instructional contractors to provide digital music production enrichment services for K–12 students. This is a potential independent contractor assignment, not an employee position. Contractors may choose whether to apply for, accept, decline, or ignore available opportunities. Assignments vary by school, grade level, schedule, available technology, software platforms, curriculum, student experience levels, and program objectives. Concorde may provide curriculum guidance, lesson-plan suggestions, instructional resources, project ideas, or program objectives. Contractors may use their professional judgment to adapt instruction within the assignment scope and applicable site requirements.

Assignment Scope

• Plan and facilitate engaging, age-appropriate digital music production sessions;
• Introduce students to beat-making, digital recording, music composition, and audio production through project-based learning;
• Adapt instruction based on student experience levels, available technology, software platforms, site requirements, and assignment objectives;
• Guide students in creating original beats, songs, podcasts, soundtracks, remixes, or other digital audio projects, where applicable;
• Maintain a safe, respectful, inclusive, and age-appropriate learning environment;
• Exercise professional judgment when adapting instruction based on available equipment, student ability, technology limitations, school policies, copyright considerations, and assignment requirements;
• Communicate assignment-related needs or significant concerns with Concorde and school staff, as appropriate;
• Complete a brief session completion form after each scheduled session;
• Follow applicable site safety, visitor, technology, internet-use, emergency, and student-protection procedures.

Qualifications

• At least 60 college credits, where required by the applicable assignment or site;
• Experience using BandLab, Soundtrap, GarageBand, Ableton Live, FL Studio, Logic Pro, Pro Tools, or similar digital audio software;
• Experience teaching, tutoring, coaching, mentoring, or leading activities with school-age students;
• Strong communication, organization, classroom facilitation, and technology troubleshooting skills;
• Availability to provide services for the accepted assignment schedule and communicate schedule issues as soon as reasonably practicable;
• Familiarity with Chromebooks, laptops, web-based applications, audio equipment, headphones, microphones, MIDI controllers, or related music-production technology.

Benefits

• Potential compensation of $50+ per completed instructional service hour, depending on assignment scope, experience, location, schedule, and agreed compensation.

Application and Onboarding

Applicants selected to move forward may be invited to create a contractor profile and complete any required onboarding steps. Applying, interviewing, receiving an invitation to create a profile, creating a profile, or completing onboarding does not guarantee selection, placement, or future assignment opportunities. Potential assignments are subject to assignment fit, agreed compensation, completion of required onboarding, applicable background-check review, Fair Chance or pre-adverse action procedures where required, site-specific clearance requirements, and final written confirmation from Concorde Education. Some assignments may require background-check authorization, fingerprinting, agency clearance, site-specific documentation, identification badges, or other compliance steps before services may begin. Applicants should not provide criminal-history information unless and until requested through the appropriate legally compliant process.

Equal Opportunity
