Virtual Teacher, Math Full Time

WHAT IS THE POSITION

The mission of the Virtual Math Teacher is to provide an outstanding, personalized, and effective learning experience for students by incorporating rigorous curriculum with a data-driven and student-centered instructional model. 

An Edmentum Virtual Teacher, SOD is a highly qualified, state certified educator primarily responsible for delivering specific course content in an online, virtual environment.
