Connecting all learners with the expert teachers they deserve.
About us
Proximity Learning partners with districts to solve teacher vacancies by livestreaming certified teachers, from all over the country, into physical classrooms for all subjects. Having already served over 150 districts and 45,000 students, Proximity Learning is committed to connecting all learners with the expert teachers they deserve. Proximity Learning facilitates district course subject needs by providing live, real-time, teacher-led instruction through video conferencing software, ensuring students do not miss out on valuable math, world language, SPED, science, or elective subjects. Each student is given access to instruction through a laptop where they can view and interact with their teacher; students and instructors communicate with each other in real-time via webcam and via text-chat. Proximity Learning teachers are the most important part of closely approximating the experience of a traditional brick and mortar classroom setting - we value those with a passion for teaching, the ability to be autonomous, and a strong drive to connect a diverse group of students across the United States with the quality teachers they deserve. Our teachers work from home and get paid a competitive salary based on experience. Additionally, we offer growth opportunities and bonuses based on student success. If that sounds like something you’d like to be part of, we’d love to hear from you about our current open positions. Avoid scams! If you're interested in joining PLI, we will always ask you to apply through our applicant dashboard in PLI Connect! All candidates can apply through our applicant dashboard at https://proxlearn.pliconnect.com/. Rest assured, we'll only consider candidates who have completed an application through this website, and have undergone a virtual face to face interview. Any communication regarding your application will come from an email address ending in @proxlearn.com. Our IT team works extremely hard to make sure everyone's data is secure.

🍎 Teachers often find themselves juggling numerous responsibilities beyond instruction. AI tools are transforming the classroom by automating routine administrative tasks, such as scheduling and organizing materials, so teachers can dedicate more time to engaging with students. Virtual assistants and AI-powered platforms help create interactive content, tailor lessons to individual learning needs, and provide instant, constructive feedback. This technology isn't just about efficiency; it's about empowering teachers. By handling time-consuming tasks, AI enables educators to focus on what matters most: nurturing and inspiring their students. Whether it's adapting lessons for diverse learning styles or supporting students with special needs, AI enhances the educational experience for all.
