An Overview of Proximity Learning

Proximity Learning Inc is an Austin, TX-based company transforming how K-12 education works for students and families across the country. Instead of relying on substitute teachers or underqualified staff, Proximity Learning supplies certified teachers to deliver live virtual instruction directly into local classrooms.

Our mission is clear: ensure every student has access to the expert teachers they deserve, no matter where they live or how many teacher vacancies a district faces.

Our model supports brick and mortar schools by blending the power of real-time online teaching with strong local partners who keep each class running smoothly. This proven approach boosts educational equity, helps districts maintain their curriculum, and ensures students stay engaged with lessons that matter.

How We Provide Virtual Education

Proximity Learning makes live virtual instruction simple and effective for schools and districts across the country. We partner with local school districts to identify open classes, hire qualified teachers, deliver daily lessons through secure online platforms

Each teacher uses a learning management system (LMS)—a digital hub where they can:

• Share resources and material
• Post assignments
• Track grades
• Communicate with students

During each classroom session, teachers use video conferencing, screen sharing, and real-time chat to keep students engaged and able to interact with peers and ask questions immediately. Local facilitators in the physical classroom help students stay on track while our certified educators lead the lesson live.

Covering a Wide Variety of Subjects

From early learners to high school seniors, Proximity Learning provides live teaching in core and specialized subjects for grades K-12, including:

• Math
• Science
• English Language Arts
• Social studies
• World languages to support bilingual education needs
• Special education
• Electives and CTE like technology, arts, and career prep
• Live virtual tutoring and summer school

With this wide range, every classroom gets the qualified instructors needed to maintain a complete, engaging curriculum that helps students thrive.

6 Reasons Why Proximity Learning Has the Best Virtual Teachers

The secret behind Proximity Learning goes beyond the technology to the people in front of the screens. Every day, our certified teachers deliver live lessons that mirror what students experience in top brick and mortar schools.

They bring deep subject knowledge, proven teaching practices, and a passion for creating connections that matter. This makes Proximity Learning the trusted company for districts wanting reliable, qualified teachers who get results.

1. They Earn Advanced Certification

Beyond state credentials, many of our instructors earn the National Virtual Teacher Certification (NVTA), an advanced credential proving excellence in online education. This university-accredited program requires:

• A rigorous portfolio
• Graduate-level projects
• Multiple evaluations by experts

With this credential, our teachers stand out as top professionals ready to deliver exceptional virtual lessons. It’s one major reason why Proximity Learning has the best educators across the country.

2. Their Evaluations are Aligned to National Standards

To guarantee top-tier virtual instruction, we hold our teachers accountable to the National Virtual Teacher Association (NVTA) rubrics. Our team conducts walkthroughs and formal observations so every student receives the best virtual learning experience.

This national standard keeps all teachers aligned and performing at a level families and districts expect. When you work with Proximity Learning, you know your students are learning from qualified teachers who deliver results.

3. They Provide Proven, Measurable Results Backed by Data

The teachers at Proximity Learning deliver numbers that matter. For example, partner school districts have seen students score 11+ points higher on standardized tests in grades 4-11 and achieve 22 points higher in Algebra I. At Red River Charter Academy, students recorded up to a 56% increase in core subject grades and boosted their average ACT scores by 5.3% in just one year.

One New Jersey district even doubled its world language courses while cutting staff costs by 66%, freeing up funds for additional resources and student support. When you work with Proximity Learning, you see clear, measurable gains in academic outcomes that make a lasting difference for your students and your community.

4. They Enjoy Continuous Professional Development

We believe great teachers never stop learning. All educators complete robust training and continue with bi-weekly professional development aligned with the NVTA’s best practices. They participate in quarterly team workshops to refine their virtual classroom strategies and share what works. This means our teachers master how to use virtual tools, run interactive labs, and model lifelong learning for their students.

5. They Receive Ongoing Feedback to Keep Them at Their Best

At Proximity Learning, teaching isn’t a “set it and forget it” job. Our certified teachers receive regular observations and timely feedback from dedicated administrators to ensure they continually meet our high standards for live virtual instruction.

This process takes work off local campus leaders while raising the bar for consistent quality. Teachers get clear guidance and resources to grow, helping every classroom deliver engaging, effective lessons that matter.

6. They Experience Built-In Collaboration and Community

Proximity Learning’s Connected Community helps teachers learn from each other and share new ideas. Our educators regularly:

• Join virtual meetups
• Use tools like Google Chat and dedicated Facebook groups to interact
• Swap resources
• Solve challenges together

Department Chairs for core subjects like math and science host regular office hours for lesson planning or technology questions. This strong peer network makes every teacher feel supported—and every student benefits from their passion and focus on meaningful connection.
