The role starts immediately and runs through the end of the current school year.

• Offer homebound services as needed.
Requirements:
• Certification as a Teacher for the Deaf/Hard of Hearing (TDHH), with virtual teaching experience preferred.
• Louisiana Ancillary Teaching Certification.
• Fluency in ASL and the ability to integrate it with academic subjects.
• Experience with students with Autism or similar learning needs is beneficial.
• Proficiency in creating and modifying Individualized Education Plans (IEPs).
• Strong virtual communication skills and the ability to connect with students.
Schedule & Compensation:
• Start Date: ASAP, lasting until the end of the school year.
• Hours: Flexible, 4 hours/day to full-time, based on mutual agreement.
• Pay: $38-43 per hour, covering direct and indirect services.
• Equivalent annual salary: $65-75k (based on a 10-month school year).
If you are dedicated to working with students who are Deaf/Hard of Hearing and can deliver an engaging virtual learning experience, we encourage you to apply.
