Finding a certified science teacher to fill an open position is one of the toughest staffing problems districts face. Biology, Chemistry, and Physics positions often remain vacant for weeks or land with uncertified substitutes who canโt deliver real instruction. Every day without a qualified instructor is a delay in student progress, and one more gap principals canโt fill on their own.
Every Proximity Learning science teacher is fully credentialed, matched to your subject area, and prepared to start teaching from day one.
Proximity Learning teachers hold active state certifications in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Earth and Space, and more, ensuring a perfect match for your vacancy and licensure needs.
Proximity Learning instructors hold live, synchronous lessons. They answer student questions, give quick feedback, and lead engaging lessons through livestream, not pre-recorded videos.
Teachers follow your districtโs pacing guides and materials, or Proximity Learning can supply standards-aligned science content tailored to your grade level and needs.
A classroom facilitator supports the physical learning environment by managing students and assisting with hands-on activities so your instructor can focus on instruction.
