Are Proximity Learning teachers licensed to teach in Hawaii?

Yes. Every instructor we place in a Hawaii school has a valid license from the Hawaii Teacher Standards Board. Unlike emergency hires, our teachers are already fully licensed.

How quickly can Proximity Learning fill a vacancy in my Hawaii school?

Most Hawaii schools are matched with a licensed teacher and start live instruction within days of signing up. Whether you are in Honolulu or on a neighbor island, we take the long search and the need for emergency hires off your hands.

Is this the same as pre-recorded or asynchronous online learning?

No. Proximity Learning offers only fully live, synchronous instruction. A licensed teacher is livestreamed into your classroom and follows your school's bell schedule, while an in-person facilitator helps in the room. Students interact with a real teacher every class period, not a recording.

Does Proximity Learning require an annual contract?

No. Proximity Learning does not require annual contracts. Hawaii schools can bring in licensed teachers for a semester, a full school year, or as long as needed. You can scale up or adjust the partnership without being locked into long-term commitments.

Q: Can Proximity Learning support Hawaii special education and IEP requirements?

Yes. Proximity Learning provides licensed SPED case managers, virtual OTs, SLPs, and school psychologists who meet Hawaii's special education rules and federal IDEA standards. Special education is one of the hardest areas to staff in Hawaii, and we can fill these roles within days.

Proximity Learning connects Hawaii schools with Hawaii Teacher Standards Board (HTSB)-licensed teachers through live, real-time instruction, filling hard-to-staff vacancies across Oahu and neighbor islands within days, not months.

Licensed Teachers Are Scarce in Hawaii

Hawaii deals with only a few unfilled teaching positions. Yet, the state has for some time depended on a flood of emergency hires and unlicensed teachers. Currently, out of over 600 new hires, nearly half of all new hires still lack a teaching license. Proximity Learning can fix that!

Why Virtual Hiring Works in Hawaii

With Hawaii’s single statewide district spanning multiple islands, finding a licensed teacher for a specific subject, especially on a neighboring island, can feel impossible. Every teacher must be licensed by the Hawaii Teacher Standards Board, but more and more classrooms are filled by emergency hires. Proximity Learning can fix the certification-shortage by placing fully licensed teachers into your classrooms through live instruction in just days.
