What are the responsibilities and job description for the Virtual Student Mentor, Unbound Academy - $60,000/year USD position at Crossover?
Attention Arizona-certified Teachers
Imagine a teaching role where lesson plans, lectures, and grading are off the table—and your entire focus is on mentoring young people to grow into self-assured, capable individuals.
Unbound Academy is creating a tuition-free, fully virtual charter school that trades worksheets for real-world learning and prioritizes personal development. Students complete their core academics in just two focused hours daily using AI-driven platforms. The remainder of their time is spent in immersive, skill-building workshops designed to spark curiosity, resilience, and self-confidence.
Your role won't involve delivering pre-scripted content or managing a conventional virtual classroom. Instead, you'll facilitate dynamic, interactive online sessions that challenge students to explore meaningful topics—storytelling, entrepreneurship, wellness, and beyond. You'll coach them toward self-reliance, support their individual journeys, and help them cultivate the capabilities that truly matter outside the classroom.
This opportunity is not for educators attached to traditional school structures. It's designed for Arizona-certified teachers prepared to work remotely, embrace innovative pedagogy, and guide students in ways that equip them for the complexities of modern life. If you're ready to leave behind the busywork and help shape a new kind of education, this position is calling your name.
What You Will Be Doing
Drive student development and readiness for life beyond school by facilitating impactful, practical learning experiences within a flexible, entirely virtual educational framework.
Basic Requirements
Unbound Academy is Arizona’s first virtual, tuition-free charter school, designed to make grades 4-8 limitless, personal, and exciting. This isn’t just an alternative to the traditional school system. It’s a revolutionary way for your family to reclaim time, unlock potential, and reimagine what education can be.
At Unbound Academy, students can master their core academics in just two hours a day. Our teachers use an AI-powered learning model to adjust to each child’s pace and interests, ensuring progress happens twice as fast as in a typical classroom.
By cutting out the fluff and streamlining coursework, we not only make a significant academic impact—we make learning fun, personal, and incredibly effective.
There is so much to cover for this exciting role, and space here is limited. Hit the Apply button if you found this interesting and want to learn more. We look forward to meeting you!
