Job Posting: Corps Member Learning Coach : NW Region, North Carolina

About North Carolina Education Corps

NCEC was launched in September 2020 by the North Carolina State Board of Education and the Office of the Governor to connect caring adults to students to eliminate barriers to opportunity and unlock student potential. Now as an independent 501(c)(3) not-for-profit, NCEC partners with schools to recruit, train, and coach “corps members” who work for schools as high-impact tutors.

Why high-impact tutoring? NCEC was created to support school personnel and students during COVID-19 and beyond. COVID-19 exacerbated challenges that have long existed in North Carolina. For example, prior to the pandemic data showed that only 36% of North Carolina’s fourth graders could read at or above grade level. State results for the past two years showed young readers in North Carolina falling even further behind due to lost instructional time and added stressors.

High-impact tutoring is an evidence-based approach used to accelerate student learning. As high-impact tutors, NCEC corps members provide targeted 1-on-1 to 1-on-3 support to students to extend the reach of teachers and accelerate student growth. For now, all corps members work with K-3 students to help the students master phonics – a foundational skill for learning how to read.  It’s life-changing for students and for corps members.
