This is not a remote position. All work with students is performed at our center in Westport, CT
What We Do
Our fundamental belief at Freudigman & Billings is that children learn best in the context of supportive relationships. We are committed to helping students better understand how they learn and how they can take ownership of that learning. Our team provides educational solutions for adolescents and children through individual assessment, personally tailored learning programs, and one-on-one coaching.
We are seeking certified reading specialists to work with high school students who are struggling with reading - both decoding and comprehension - and the resultant academic challenges that weak reading can create. Our reading specialist will see students with a wide variety of language-based diagnoses, such as Dyslexia; Specific Learning Disorders in Basic Reading Skill, Reading Fluency, and Reading Comprehension; and ADHD. Reading specialists provide customized as well as evidence-based remediative services through which students acquire the skill sets, self-knowledge, and resiliency they need to become better readers.
Reading specialists must be able to work with children and adolescents alike and have experience with a range of K-12 students. Preference will be given to individuals who have obtained (or are pursuing) a certification in reading and a masters degree in special education. Training in various reading programs and approaches is required.
Why Join Freudigman & Billings?
Predictable hours at a single office location : Almost always, our work with students takes place at our 11,000 square foot headquarters in Westport, CT. Students are encouraged to utilize our space not only to see their instructors, but to do homework, hang out with friends, have a snack, get some advice, or even catch a quick nap during finals week. Instructors are provided with a private classroom, a whiteboard, and all materials necessary for a productive session. No unpaid time as you drive from house to house!
Teamwork: We work closely together on a daily basis to create and execute individualized learning plans, meaning that our work is far more comprehensive and impactful than a transactional hour of tutoring. We are proud of the collegiality that our building and our philosophy inspires, as well as the team of educators we have attracted as a result.
Professional development: We care about our staff and teaching you how to teach. Our team of Directors have PhDs, Masters degrees, and other certifications to help you achieve your goals and help you gain mastery of your own instructional techniques.
