What are the responsibilities and job description for the Online Middle School Teacher position at Brilliant Microschools & Brilliant Grades?
Welcome to Brilliant Microschools
We’re not your typical online school.
We’re a network of accredited online schools rethinking how teaching should feel. Small groups (max 1:10 ratio). Flexible hours. Zero busywork. Real connection.
We’re hiring a Middle School Teacher (W-2), someone who still loves teaching—and is ready for a better way to do it.
Why Teachers Love Working Here:
- W-2 Stability: Predictable pay, taxes handled. No guesswork.
- Curriculum Ready: We provide the cutting-edge apps & resources.
- Choose Your Hours: One or two blocks per day (10–1 PM or 1:30–4:30 PM EST).
- Fully Funded BMS Certification: We invest in your growth. Earn a professional certification from our WASC- and Cognia-accredited school at no cost to you, ensuring you start with total confidence.
- Parent Support Team: You won’t have to handle tough situations alone. We help with high-stakes cases, parent meetings, and more.
- Creative, Mastery-Based Curriculum: No cookie-cutter lessons here. We blend interdisciplinary projects, real-world problem-solving, and flexible pathways so students can show what they know—not just memorize and move on. You’ll guide students toward mastery at their own pace, using scaffolded tools and formative feedback that meets them where they are.
What You’ll Do:
- Teach engaging Zoom-based classes (max 1:10 ratio).
- Build real relationships with students and families.
- Personalize learning pathways (we’ll show you how).
- Track progress and give meaningful feedback.
- Guide students through project-based tasks.
- Keep learning fun, challenging, and organized.
You’ll Thrive Here If You:
- Are certified to teach middle school grades (any state certification accepted).
- Have a minimum of 3 years of teaching experience.
- Feel comfortable teaching all 4 core subjects: ELA, Math, Sciences, and Social Studies.
- Understand and apply MTSS (Multi-Tiered System of Supports) to meet diverse student needs.
- You’re confident teaching online—you’re tech-savvy, fluent in Zoom, and know how to keep remote learning high-energy.
- Communicate clearly—with both students and parents.
- You’re organized, clear, and love connecting with students.
- Believe students learn best when they’re known, challenged, and supported.
- You deeply believe in mastery-based learning.
- You know how to apply UDL.
- Must be based in Texas or Florida (fully remote role, but physical location required for legal employment eligibility).
- Recognize this is a proper teaching position: It demands real engagement, commitment, and equal professionalism to traditional brick-and-mortar roles—though with less overall demand on your time.
