Renton Special Needs tutoring job

Job description

We are a Newcastle-based family seeking a Math Specialist to join our son’s educational team for a long-term, 4-year partnership. We are specifically looking for a mentor who excels at teaching high school math concepts to a "Twice-Exceptional" (2e) learner. Our 8th grader has a spike learning profile: he possesses advanced logic and math skills while managing language delays of being on the autism spectrum. He is currently being homeschooled to cater to his learning profile. He loves Math and Chemistry and works hard with his tutors. He is minimally verbal (able to answer math/objective questions, request needs/wants but is not otherwise very conversational). He is a sweet happy young teenager and needs to stim occasionally. We need a strategic educational partner who can translate math concepts into a visual or low-verbal format (like graphs, number bonds, equations, etc) that respects and challenges our son’s intellect. Outside of occasional vacations, you will have guaranteed consistent schedule of 6 hours per week (3 days - 2 hours each). Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday mornings from 9.30 am to 11.30 am would be the most ideal schedule but this is flexible.
