Bright Minds Inc. is a licensed HIT (High-Impact Tutoring) provider through OSSE for the 2024-2025 school year, working with high-priority DC schools. We are a franchise of the Huntington Learning Center, one of the largest tutoring companies in the country. Our HIT programs last year produced excellent results at our partner schools. We have developed a strong partnership with Friendship SE Middle and Elementary Schools in SE Washington DC, where we provide reading and math tutoring to students in 4th-8th grade. We are excited to be adding a second high priority student population this year at Center City PCS (NoMa). We are hiring part-time teachers available to work at Friendship SE Elementary and Middle Schools (645 Milwaukee Place SE) and/or Center City PCS (NoMa) (1217 West Virginia Avenue NE) during the school day for around 2 hours per day.

This program is funded by a grant to provide HIT (High-Impact Tutoring) to students in an effort to recover from learning loss during the pandemic. Teachers will use proven, individualized academic programs working with students in up to a 4:1 ratio. You will work with the same small group of students who are assigned to you from beginning to end of the program. The goal of the program is to help students bring their foundational academic skills in reading and math up to grade level. We work closely with the reading specialists at our partner schools to identify the correct starting levels and areas of opportunity in reading comprehension for each student. This allows us to put together an individualized program for each student. Then, we adjust it regularly, based on their scores and your feedback, to make sure we get the most we can out of each session.

Teachers are expected to engage and interact with their students; we are looking for individuals in the community who see the importance of reading fluency and comprehension skills and are passionate about helping our students become better students. We know that this will make our students more confident and provide the foundation they will need to be successful in all of their classes moving forward. We have a proven, individualized Huntington Learning Center academic program for every student based on an academic evaluation. There is no prep, planning or looking for curriculum. You will be paid for simply teaching the assigned program to your assigned students, each at their own pace. Teachers always have the option to adjust their availability as needed.

This is a great opportunity to make a difference in our community. We look forward to sharing more with you about this exciting opportunity!
