Virtual Instructional Coach: Eureka Math 

Why this role matters

As an instructional coach at EdConnective, you’ll play a vital role in helping educators thrive—ultimately driving stronger outcomes for students. Our coaches aren’t just supporters or cheerleaders; they’re strategic partners to K–12 educators and school leaders nationwide. You'll empower educators to refine their craft and reach their full potential, directly benefiting every student they teach

While we welcome all strong coaching candidates, we are currently seeking experienced educators who can provide Eureka Math based coaching to instructional coaches. 

This is an independent contract, fully remote position.

Our coaching partnerships are student-centered, with goals driven by student outcomes first and foremost. We believe effective coaching is data-driven and practice-based.

The opportunity

At EdConnective, you’ll join a community of accomplished educators who are passionate about making a measurable impact—and growing professionally while doing so. Our coaches are not only experts in instruction, but also skilled communicators who bring actionable strategies and build strong relationships with educators and leaders across the country.

As a coach, you’ll engage in meaningful work: observing classrooms, conducting virtual sessions, and partnering with educators to improve instruction and student outcomes. You’ll also benefit from ongoing support through our own coaching model and professional development resources—because we believe in investing in your growth, too.

Coaching Structure

Each partnership is short and intensive, giving you the opportunity to make a real difference in a focused time frame. Our emphasis on fit ensures you are matched with participants where your strengths and style are leveraged , maximizing both impact and satisfaction.

Once matched, you’ll begin with a 30-minute Intro Session to build rapport, learn the educator’s context, and set clear, actionable goals. Each week, participants submit an artifact—such as a session recording or reflection journal—that guides a focused 30-minute coaching meeting.

In each session, you’ll highlight strengths ("glows"), offer targeted strategies for growth ("grows"), and support real-time practice—ensuring your coaching is both practical and impactful.

Most partnerships include 8 sessions over 8–14 weeks and require just 1–2 hours of your time weekly, offering a flexible, high-impact way to make a difference.

What you’ll bring:

• Significant experience coaching and/or teaching Eureka Math curriculum implementation, including its pedagogical approaches and best practices. 

• Proven experience coaching other instructional coaches or K-12 school leaders (e.g., as a school administrator, district curriculum specialist, or lead coach).

• Demonstrated effectiveness as a classroom teacher, instructional coach, and/or K-12 leader in improving student outcomes.

• Ability to determine and communicate specific, actionable classroom and coaching strategies to respectfully foster growth and improve student outcomes for teachers and K-12 leaders.

• Ability to quickly build relationships and rapport with diverse adult learners.

• Direct and friendly communication, strong organization, effective problem-solving, ability to meet deadlines, and flexibility.

• Responsive communication to emails and timely updates (within 24 hours) in our project management system.

• Openness to feedback and continuous improvement.

While not required, we are also looking for:

• Experience with K-2 Eureka Math as a strong plus.

• At least 5 years of classroom teaching experience in PreK-6.

• An education-related Master’s Degree or higher.

• Capacity to manage 8-15+ partnerships concurrently (12-18+ hours/week) during peak seasons. We will consider applicants with less capacity if they meet our highest-need experience criteria.

• Ability to make a 2-year commitment to this position.

• Previous instructional coaching experience (beyond the specific K-2 Eureka Math or coaching coaches experience listed above).

• Experience teaching and leading diverse student populations, including students living in poverty

Commitment & Expectations

We are currently seeking coaches with the capacity to take on 4 - 15 partnerships or more at a time, equating to approximately 12-18+ hours of work per week during peak seasons (typically September - May). While we strive for consistency, work availability is dependent on client demand and cannot be guaranteed. This may result in lighter summers and occasional periods without active coaching partnerships.

Given the extensive nature of our development and support process, we ask coaches to make a 2-year commitment to this role. All EdConnective coaches receive ongoing coaching on their own practice and support for any challenges that may arise. While we encourage coaches to leverage their rich experience, we expect adherence to the EdConnective coaching model: student-centered, data-driven, practice-oriented, and coach-directed.
