We make it easy for teachers to engage their students with interactive video lessons. By creating an extensive library of interactive video lessons, we are on our way to becoming a one-stop-shop where teachers can find reliable, standards-aligned video lessons to help their students master important content.

Essential Duties/Responsibilities:

  • Script Editing: Work closely with lesson writers as a developmental editor, reviewing script outlines and drafts to make recommendations on structure, style, tone, and clarity. Help distill complex concepts using straightforward, accessible language. Edit and improve all of the scripts we produce to ensure they meet quality expectations.
  • Brand Voice: Maintain brand voice and writing guidelines to ensure all of our scripts have a consistent style and tone that will connect with teachers and students.
  • Scaling: Help to scale curriculum production by identifying inefficiencies in the processes for script writing and editing. Develop guidelines for our curriculum designers to improve their writing, decrease their need for editing, and allow them to sustainably increase the volume of scripts they produce.
