    "description": "<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: bold\">Location:</span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\"> On-site at our Westport, CT Center</span></p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">We are currently recruiting for the 2026–2027 academic year, with anticipated start dates in August/September 2026. </span><br><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">All sessions take place at our center in Westport, CT. This is not a remote position. Candidates must be available to work Sundays, with additional weekday hours based on student scheduling needs.</span></p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18pt; font-weight: bold\">Who We Are</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">At Freudigman &amp; Billings, we believe students learn best in the context of supportive relationships. Our mission is to help young people better understand how they learn and empower them to take ownership of that learning process. We provide educational solutions for children and adolescents through individualized assessments, personalized learning plans, and one-on-one coaching.</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18pt; font-weight: bold\">What We Do</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">Educational Therapy provides individualized instruction and support for students experiencing learning challenges. While a subject tutor focuses primarily on teaching academic content, Educational Therapists apply specialized knowledge of learning differences and executive functioning challenges to address broader barriers affecting a student’s academic performance and emotional well-being.</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">Our Educational Therapists work with students experiencing a wide range of learning profiles, including dyslexia, reading and writing challenges, nonverbal learning disabilities, ADHD, executive functioning deficits, and processing weaknesses. Sessions may include academic remediation, study skills coaching, organizational support, emotional regulation strategies, and mentorship depending on each student’s needs.</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">We utilize students’ day-to-day schoolwork as a vehicle for skill-building and self-awareness, helping students develop the resiliency, confidence, and strategies necessary for long-term success both inside and outside the classroom.</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">As an Educational Therapist, you’ll work closely with students, families, and colleagues in a collaborative and highly supportive environment focused on meaningful, long-term growth.</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18pt; font-weight: bold\">Who You Are</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">You are intellectually curious about how students learn and motivated by the challenge of developing individualized educational plans. You are flexible, reflective, and open to feedback, recognizing that Educational Therapy is an evolving practice grounded in relationship-building, observation, and continuous learning.</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">You may come from a background in teaching, counseling, psychology, learning support, or a combination of educational and clinical settings. Most importantly, you are someone who can build trust with students while balancing academic support with emotional insight and mentorship.</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">The ideal candidate is warm, observant, organized, and capable of navigating both the academic and interpersonal aspects of student support. Strong communication skills, professional judgment, and confidence with high school-level math and science content are essential.</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18pt; font-weight: bold\">Why Work With Us?</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold\">Predictable Hours, One Location</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">All sessions take place at our 11,000-square-foot headquarters in Westport, CT. Our center is designed to be a welcoming and supportive environment where students can learn, connect, and grow. Educational Therapists are provided with dedicated workspace, whiteboards, and all materials needed for effective sessions.</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold\">Collaborative, Relationship-Driven Culture</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">Educational Therapists work closely with colleagues across departments to ensure students receive cohesive, individualized support. This is not transactional tutoring—it is long-term, relationship-centered educational work designed to make a lasting impact.</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold\">Professional Development</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">We invest heavily in training and mentorship. Our Directors provide ongoing supervision, case consultation, and instructional support to help Educational Therapists continue developing their expertise.</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold\">Full Administrative Support</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">Scheduling, billing, materials, and logistics are handled by our administrative team, allowing Educational Therapists to focus primarily on student support and instruction.</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold\">Competitive Pay</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">This is a part-time hourly position with compensation based on experience, education, and qualifications.</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18pt; font-weight: bold\">Responsibilities</span></p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">Collaborate with colleagues and participate in student-specific case review meetings to develop and implement individualized educational plans</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">Support students through profile-specific interventions designed to improve academic functioning, executive functioning, and emotional resilience</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">Foster trusting, respectful relationships that support both educational and emotional growth</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">Coordinate with other instructors and specialists to ensure cohesive student support</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">Assist with curriculum development and special projects within the Educational Therapy department</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">Maintain confidentiality and professionalism in all student and family communications</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">Report directly to the Director of Educational Therapy</span></li>\n</ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18pt; font-weight: bold\">Requirements</span></p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">Master’s degree preferred in Special Education, Psychology, Counseling, or a related field; Educational Therapy certification strongly valued</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">Strong written and verbal communication skills</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">High emotional intelligence, empathy, and professionalism</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">Excellent organizational skills, attention to detail, and observational abilities</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">Ability to adapt instruction and identify teachable moments in real time</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">Confidence supporting high school-level subjects, including Algebra I &amp; II, Geometry, Chemistry, and Biology, in the context of study skills and executive functioning support</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, student-centered environment</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">Genuine interest in mentorship and adolescent development</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">Ability to pass a background check</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">Reliable transportation and ability to work on-site in Westport, CT</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt\">Unrestricted authorization to work in the United States</span></li>\n</ul>",
