Role Overview We're looking for a thoughtful, experienced private educator to design and lead a highly personalized learning experience for two bright, curious elementary-aged siblings in South Florida. This is a full-time, in-home role for an educator who loves the idea of building a rich, flexible school day around two students' real interests, learning styles, movement needs, and long-term academic goals. The family is creating a dedicated classroom space in the home and wants this to feel like a true learning environment: structured, joyful, active, and academically meaningful. You'll lead core instruction, help select and adapt curriculum, build routines, support Spanish language development, coordinate enrichment experiences, and create a school rhythm that helps both children feel confident, challenged, and known. This role will be especially rewarding for an educator who brings warmth, calm authority, creativity, and strong instructional judgment. The right person will know how to be loving without being permissive, structured without being rigid, and ambitious without losing sight of the children's need for movement, play, connection, and joy. Student Profiles You'll be working with two siblings who are bright, verbal, active, and full of ideas. Both children enjoy learning and respond well to teachers who are kind, patient, calm, and fun. They are especially drawn to hands-on learning, meaningful projects, movement, and lessons that connect schoolwork to real life. One student is highly curious and especially interested in STEM, robotics, coding, engineering, Legos, science, animation, sports, and big historical questions. This student is smart, introspective, persistent, and motivated by meaningful goals and positive reinforcement. He has autism-related needs and dysgraphia, and will benefit from an educator who understands how to support regulation, flexibility, movement, executive functioning, and written-output challenges without lowering academic expectations. ABA experience would be beneficial. The other student is a strong and enthusiastic learner who loves reading, art, history, social studies, science, building, dance, softball, golf, basketball, piano, and creative projects. This student is academically capable, socially mature, and eager for challenge. The family suspects some ADHD-like needs may be present, though not formally diagnosed, and wants a learning environment that provides appropriate movement, depth, independence, and room to grow. The family is culturally rooted, socially open-minded, and deeply values education, compassion, curiosity, and global awareness. Spanish fluency is very important to the family. The children have been in a dual-language environment before, travel internationally to visit extended family, and the family would love Spanish to be woven naturally into the day through conversation, reading, cultural learning, and practical use. What You'll Do Design and lead a full-time, personalized 1:2 learning program for two elementary-aged siblings. Teach core academics, including reading, writing, math, science, social studies, and history, while adapting pacing to each child's readiness and strengths. Help select, adapt, and implement high-quality curriculum in partnership with the family and Thrive's academic support team. Build a balanced school day that includes focused academics, movement breaks, hands-on work, project-based learning, outdoor time, and enrichment. Incorporate Spanish conversation and bilingual learning opportunities in natural, developmentally appropriate ways. Support executive functioning, emotional regulation, attention, transitions, and written-output challenges with calm, consistent strategies. Use positive reinforcement, clear expectations, and thoughtful structure to help students stay motivated and engaged. Coordinate or accompany students to enrichment activities such as robotics, art, cooking, community-based learning, museum visits, nature experiences, or other local programs. Create "Fun Friday" opportunities when core academic work is complete, using field trips, experiments, cooking, projects, or local outings as meaningful incentives and extensions of learning. Track student progress, support benchmark testing or portfolio documentation as needed, and communicate clearly with the family about growth, goals, and next steps. What Makes You Successful You are warm, calm, and confident . You can hold clear boundaries without yelling, escalating, or becoming overly rigid. You understand that relationship is central to learning , especially for children who need trust, consistency, and emotional safety before they can do their best work. You know how to support neurodivergent learners with practical tools: movement breaks, visual supports, positive reinforcement, flexible pacing, executive function strategies, and thoughtful transitions. You are creative and academically serious. You can teach foundational skills while also building rich projects around topics like history, STEM, geography, travel, art, cooking, robotics, or student interests. You are comfortable with a dynamic schedule that may include core academics in the morning and enrichment, outings, projects, or community learning in the afternoon. You are fluent in Spanish and can help students grow in confidence through conversation, cultural learning, and practical daily use. Native speakers preferred. You are organized, proactive, and comfortable partnering closely with parents while still taking ownership of the school day. You bring professionalism, discretion, and sound judgment to a private-family setting.
