About The Educator's Room, LLC
The Educator’s Room is a diverse, sustainable media brand focused on telling the stories of being an educator. Over the past several years, The Educator’s Room has built a family of sites covering education from the lens of news, technology, entertainment, and teaching. Our work is simple: -Through articles, books, and events we will inform the work that's happening in schools by having honest dialogue with educators about how to improve public education. -Through our diverse media options (podcasts, talk shows, books, and more) we will engage educators in the work that binds us in the working of serving students and the community. -We are a network of educators who engage in events focused on the mental health of educators through research, events, and timely discussions with our community. To that extent, we work to elevate teacher voices to change the narrative of public education- particularly in some of our most underserved communities across the world. We advocate for teachers to write about what really happens in their classroom with a solution-focused mindset so that teachers can feel supported in a world where teacher respect is at an all-time low. We have published thousands of articles, tweets, videos, and other content featuring voices from around the world all with one thing in common- they are certificated teachers. In addition, we have been featured on various media platforms including The Washington Post, The Huffington Post, and to name a few.

Job description

Are you a dynamic teacher who yearns to do something different? Do you have a "knack" for writing to an audience of teachers who are passionate about all topics in education?

If so, you may have found your writing home at The Educator's Room and our affiliates- Education in Atlanta, The Instructional Coach Academy, and more!

We are the only website created for teachers by teachers, and we're always on a quest to give a voice to our fellow teachers.

We are looking for enthusiastic, talented, and dedicated teacher-writers to join our editorial team to contribute to The Educator's Room and our affiliates. You will work closely with the editor-in-chief and news staff to research, write and discuss topics in education.

As a contributor, you should perform thorough research on various topics and have a keen eye for detail. You will be able to self-start and write from a strong viewpoint and based on evidence.

Ultimately, you should deliver good quality content like news posts, reviews, and features all about education.

Responsibilities

  • Perform research on different topics in education- especially about issues of things happening in your classroom, school, or district.
  • Use personal experience to write articles about what happens in education.
  • Uncover newsworthy stories by using your experience in education.
  • Write content with the teacher's needs in mind.
  • Ensure your pieces are told from the viewpoint of a teacher
  • Contribute to content idea generation for publication
  • Stay up-to-date with local, national, and international education affairs

Requirements

  • Proven work experience as a certificated teacher, principal, or counselor from grades PreK-16.
  • Be willing to submit at least one article per week.
  • Computer proficiency (MS Office, digital editing, web search, and databases)
  • Excellent writing skills in English
  • The ability to write honestly about what happens in a classroom using experience or research to support what you are writing.
  • Good observation skills about the "hot button" topics in education and writing about them in real-time.

Please submit a piece of writing for consideration for The Educator's Room. Your writing should be 600-1000 words long on an education topic of your choice. Please send a piece of writing that has not been published elsewhere, as we will offer to publish your piece if it fits our guidelines.

Your piece will be assessed on its originality, clarity, and mastery of mechanics. We recommend reading a few pieces on The Educator's Room to familiarize yourself with our style.
