From Thrive Education Partners's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
We're looking for an experienced, warm educator ready to take on a richly varied teaching role with four siblings, ranging from 1st grade through 10th grade. You'll deliver direct instruction to the two youngest students using the family's chosen curriculum and classical Christian education principles, while providing coaching, structure, and accountability support to the older two who are exclusively enrolled in an online curriculum.
This is a role for a teacher who genuinely enjoys the variety of multi-age instruction and knows how to meet each learner where they are. You'll bring structure and warmth in equal measure. The family values classical Christian education and is looking for someone who shares or is genuinely open to those principles.
The students work at a dedicated classroom space in their community in Elkview, just outside of Charleston. It's a real, purposeful learning environment, and the family has invested meaningfully in creating the right setting for their kids.
Student Profiles
You'll work with four siblings across a wide developmental range, each with a distinct personality and a different level of academic independence.
The youngest, a 6-year-old in 1st grade, is bright, excitable, and loves doing school tasks in short bursts. She thrives through play, art, and song, and benefits from hands-on materials and consistent, enthusiastic direction. She's enrolled in a foundational math course and an online art class, with additional family-selected curriculum requiring lesson planning and implementation from you.
Her 9-year-old brother in 4rd grade is a sweet, reserved boy who loves crafts, drawing, art, and being read to. He works through several online courses and needs regular support to check for understanding, fill gaps, and pace his work well. He's working on building stamina and confidence as a learner. Frequent breaks and chunked instruction are key strategies for him.
The 13-year-old in 7th grade is outgoing and funny, with a love of cooking, reading, and his younger siblings. He's managing a demanding five-course schedule with one asynchronous class. Mostly independent, he benefits from explicit executive functioning support, organizational coaching, and occasional math help.
The 16-year-old in 10th grade is self-directed, dry-humored, and very polite. He carries a rigorous six-course academic schedule and will occasionally need support with writing, expanding ideas, and project work. He plays cello, competes in club and high school baseball, and is active in his church youth group.
All four children play violin. Faith, character, and academic excellence are central to this family's values, and they're looking for an educator who will genuinely support all three.
You have experience teaching across multiple grade levels and genuinely enjoy the variety and flexibility that comes with a multi-age setting
You know how to calibrate -- warm and playful with a kindergartner, patient and confidence-building with a third grader who doubts himself, coach-like with a middle schooler navigating executive functioning, and collegial with a self-directed teenager
