The Traditional Substitute System Is Broken. Your Students Are Paying for It.

Substitute shortages are making a broken system even harder to manage. When districts can’t find a qualified substitute, students lose instructional time they can’t get back, and principals scramble to fill the gap. Proximity Learning gives districts reliable, certified remote long-term substitute teachers who are available when you need them.

What a Certified Virtual Substitute Teacher Brings to Your District

Our remote substitute teachers are certified educators specifically trained to deliver live, structured instruction from the very first session.

State-Certified in Their Subject Area

Every virtual substitute teacher we place is state-certified in their specific subject area, verified against your state’s licensure requirements before they cover a single classroom.
