Candidates with the following are preferred:

• a degree from a Catholic institution with a strong, broad, liberal arts core;

• a background in Thomistic philosophy, especially philosophy of nature and metaphysics;

Pay is a per course stipend with bonuses available for high enrollment and performance.  Rates available upon request.  Appointment includes training in both use of the technology and classroom methodology, generally.  Software and materials provided. 

The school is a great fit for first-time teachers seeking to learn and old hands wishing for part-time teaching opportunities.
