Our vision is to elevate online learning by applying the most successful approaches in virtual education to create an accessible and inclusive homeschool curriculum platform where all students can be successful! MiaPrep Online Academy of Ohio is our newest offering for Ohio families looking for a flexible public school option. The school will serve grades 7-11 in its first year. The school aims to serve 250 students year one, with plans to grow to over 1,000 students by 2030. 🚀 We're seeking a passionate and resourceful Secondary English Teacher to join our team with a start date of July 20, 2026. This is a fully remote, asynchronous teaching role that emphasizes student support, feedback, and mentorship rather than live instruction. Teachers at MOAO do not create lesson plans or deliver live classes; instead, they guide students through our self-paced curriculum, providing coaching, small-group tutoring/office hours, and in-depth feedback on summative assignments. In addition to their teaching responsibilities, all MOAO teachers also serve as Academic Advisors to a caseload of up to 30 students, building relationships and helping students meet their goals. See an example of an English lesson from MiaPrep: A Day in the Role Grading and Feedback: Efficiently evaluate students' assignments for various subjects, such as Middle School Language Arts and Reading Comprehension, English 1-4, Theater Arts, and Journalism, providing comprehensive feedback to aid their learning and development.

Message Board: Create and maintain a message board to provide resources for students who need additional support. Academic Advising: Maintain a caseload of students for whom you will provide academic advising, including regular check-ins, and in some cases, targeted support plans. Tiered Support: Identify struggling students and, together with the Academic Counselors, proactively provide tiered support solutions to enhance their academic performance. Parental and Student Communication: Act as the primary point of contact for both parents and students in academic matters in your subject area, ensuring a constructive channel of communication. School Community Engagement: Actively participate in school initiatives and contribute to the creation and implementation of school-wide academic policies. Lead or contribute to an extracurricular club or activity that aligns with your expertise or passion. Positive Culture Building: Uphold and contribute to our school's positive culture and values, both among the faculty and the student body. Ownership: Be willing to speak up when things can be improved, and willing to step up when a need is identified or support is needed within the school community. Schedule MOAO Teachers are expected to have 40 hours of availability each week on a year-round basis. A minimum of 25 hours of availability per week during school hours, Monday through Friday between 8 am and 4 pm in the Eastern time zone is required to accommodate office hours, staff collaboration, and student communication.
