Careers at Hexagon Academy

Teach With Us.

Join a community built to a higher standard. Teach the subject you love, in small classes, with a founder who's still in the room. This is a paid professional role, not a volunteer co-op.

Why teach here

The Room You've Been Looking For.

This started at a kitchen table. One mom teaching the homeschool families around her, until more kids showed up than her living room could hold. It grew into a real academy and it still feels like family. That's the room you'd be teaching in.

Classes stay small here on purpose. Ten to twelve kids, fifteen at most. Small enough that you know every child by name, see how each one's doing that day, and catch the kid who's quietly stuck before it turns into a bad week.

And you get to teach with a real method, not a script. Start every class with a question good enough that every kid wants the answer. You're trusted to teach your subject the way it's meant to be taught. This is a paid professional position. Our instructors do all the teaching. Parents stay the legal homeschoolers and don't teach here, which is exactly why we're not a co-op.

Who we hire

The Standard We Hire To

Expertise gets you in the door. What sets our instructors apart is everything after it.

Real expertise in your subject

This is the floor, and it's required. You know your subject cold and you can teach it with depth. Subject mastery is where we start, not where we stop.

You love kids

You genuinely like children and you enjoy seeing the world through their eyes. That isn't a soft skill here. It's the work.

Think like a kid, teach like a teacher

You remember what it feels like to not get it yet, and you can meet a child there while still holding the standard high.

You make ideas come alive

Hands-on, not lectured at. You hand kids real materials and real problems and let them build, test, and figure it out.

What we offer

What You Get Teaching Here

A paid professional role

You're a paid instructor, not a parent volunteer and not a co-op helper. Competitive pay, per teaching hour, for real teaching work.

Small classes

Ten to twelve students, fifteen max. Small enough to actually know every kid and teach the way you wish you always could.

Real support and a clear method

A founder in the building, a clear approach to teach with, and the freedom to teach your subject with depth.

A mission that respects great teaching

We hold the work to the highest standard. Your craft matters here, and it shows in every class we run.

How we hire

The Bar Is High. On Purpose.

We vet every instructor in full. No shortcuts. Parents are trusting us with their kids, and we take that seriously, so the people in front of those kids have earned their way there.

We hire for fit with how we teach. You can be brilliant in your field and still not be right for this room, and that's okay. We're looking for the person who knows their subject and loves kids and teaches with the method behind every class. Everyone we bring on is trained on that approach before they ever lead a class.

We're selective. Not everyone is a fit, and that's the point. If this sounds like the room you've been waiting for, we'd like to hear from you.
