Spanish Instructor Opportunities

About the role

Concorde Education is seeking independent instructional contractors to provide Spanish language 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, curriculum, student proficiency levels, available instructional resources, and program objectives. Concorde may provide curriculum guidance, lesson-plan suggestions, instructional resources, activity 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 Spanish language enrichment sessions;
• Introduce students to foundational Spanish vocabulary, pronunciation, conversational skills, listening comprehension, reading, writing, and cultural awareness through interactive instruction;
• Adapt instruction based on student age, proficiency level, learning needs, available instructional resources, site requirements, and assignment objectives;
• Encourage student participation through games, songs, storytelling, role-playing, collaborative activities, and real-world communication exercises, where appropriate;
• Introduce students to traditions, geography, customs, holidays, music, food, and other cultural topics from Spanish-speaking countries in an age-appropriate and educational manner;
• Maintain a safe, respectful, inclusive, and age-appropriate learning environment;
• Exercise professional judgment when selecting instructional materials and ensure that all content remains educational, culturally respectful, age-appropriate, and consistent with school policies 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, emergency, student-protection, and technology procedures.

Qualifications

• At least 60 college credits, where required by the applicable assignment or site;
• Proficiency in spoken and written Spanish with the ability to model accurate pronunciation and age-appropriate language instruction;
• Experience teaching, tutoring, coaching, mentoring, or leading activities with school-age students;
• Strong communication, organization, classroom facilitation, and behavior-management skills;
• Availability to provide services for the accepted assignment schedule and communicate schedule issues as soon as reasonably practicable;
• Familiarity with language-learning resources, educational technology, web-based instructional tools, or related classroom materials.

Benefits

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

Pay

Compensation varies by assignment and agreed contractor terms. Many opportunities pay $50+ per completed instructional service hour with students. Contractors may propose their desired compensation rate when applying. When proposing a rate, contractors should consider the overall assignment scope, including anticipated preparation, planning, commute, materials, schedule, and other business considerations. Concorde may accept the proposed rate, decline the application, or provide a counteroffer based on the budget for the specific assignment. Unless otherwise approved in writing, compensation is based on completed instructional service hours with students. Payment for completed services is generally made by direct deposit on the fifteenth day of the month following the month in which services were completed, unless otherwise stated in the accepted assignment terms or required by applicable law.

Schedule

Typically 1–4 instructional service hours per week after school.

Program Length

Commonly approximately 10 weeks per assignment.
