Listing checked September 22, 2026 · pay as published by AfterQuery
Overview
AfterQuery needs an English teacher to build reading and writing scenarios that help frontier AI labs test model judgment. You will work with English language arts material across grade levels, from literature analysis to composition feedback. The contract runs remote and async, with about 10 hours each week that you set. Stripe handles pay at $35 to $65 per hour. Your work shapes how AI models reason about writing instruction and student feedback.

- 2At least 2 years of English teaching in a classroom.
- 3Depth in writing instruction, literature, and composition feedback.

- 7Preferred: advising journalism, yearbook, or creative writing.
- 8Preferred: teaching English learners.
Who Should Apply
The right candidate holds a teaching license with an English language arts endorsement and has spent 2 or more years teaching English in a classroom. Depth in writing instruction, literature, and composition feedback matters, along with written English strong enough to model excellent feedback. Experience with AP, IB, journalism, yearbook, creative writing, or English learners gives you an edge. The role fits teachers who can commit 10 hours each week and work without live class schedules. Candidates often lose fit when they skip the teaching level question, leave out their license or endorsement details, or show no evidence of composition feedback work; the role is less suitable for teachers without a license or endorsement, those with under 2 years of classroom English teaching, or anyone who needs a set synchronous schedule.
Salary Insight
AfterQuery pays $35 to $65 per hour through Stripe. That band suits licensed teachers who bring classroom experience and advanced course or writing-advising depth. The top of the range matches candidates with AP, IB, or comparable advanced instruction on their record.
