9th Grade English Teacher – Student Support

Heichal HaTorah is looking for a warm, dedicated English teacher to teach a small 9th-grade class for students who benefit from additional academic support.

This is an opportunity for a teacher who enjoys getting to know students, building their confidence, and helping them experience success in English. The class will follow a scaled-down version of Heichal’s 9th-grade English curriculum, with a focus on strengthening foundational skills in reading, writing, grammar, vocabulary, and comprehension.

The ideal candidate is a patient and encouraging teacher who understands that students learn at different paces and is able to create a classroom where boys feel comfortable asking questions, taking risks, and making progress. Experience working with students who need additional academic support is a strong plus.

Schedule: Monday–Thursday, 4:05–4:45 PM

Responsibilities include:

• Teaching a supportive, skills-based 9th-grade English curriculum

• Providing individualized attention and encouragement

• Building students’ reading, writing, grammar, vocabulary, and comprehension skills

• Helping students develop confidence and independence as learners

• Working collaboratively with the Heichal English Department

Qualifications:

• Strong background in English education or a related field

• High-school teaching experience preferred

• Experience working with students who need additional academic support is a plus

• Warm, patient, and student-centered approach

• Commitment to the educational mission and values of a Modern Orthodox yeshiva

Compensation: $12,000–$14,000, prorated based on experience

This position would be particularly well suited to an experienced teacher in the local Jewish-school community who is looking for a meaningful opportunity to work closely with a small group of students and make a tangible difference in their academic growth.
