Are you the kind of writer who thinks like a teacher?

We’re hiring a Writer at Ascendium Education Solutions to create digital learning experiences that help learners move forward in school and life.

We’re looking for someone who can look at a complex idea and ask: What does someone need to understand first? How do we make it clear without losing the nuance? And how do we make it sound like an actual human said it?

If you bring together exceptional writing, sharp critical thinking, and an understanding of how people learn, we’d love to hear from you.
