Make a meaningful impact every day as a dedicated ASL Instructional Assistant supporting an elementary student who is deaf/hard of hearing. This unique contract opportunity is ideal for an ASL-fluent professional who is passionate about fostering communication, access, and confidence for young learners.
In this role, you’ll go beyond interpreting; you’ll provide compassionate, individualized support—from language facilitation to academic assistance, social-emotional encouragement, and personalized behavioral guidance.

What You’ll Bring:
- Fluency in American Sign Language (ASL) is required
- Previous school, special education, or 1:1 support experience preferred
- Background supporting children who are deaf/hard of hearing is a plus
- Ability to communicate and support learning in ASL throughout the school day
- Patient, encouraging, and child-centered approach
- Strong collaboration and interpersonal skills
- EIPA or RID certification not required, but given preference
Your Day-to-Day Responsibilities:
- Provide consistent 1:1 support using ASL for classroom instruction, peer interactions, and routines
- Rephrase, break down, and scaffold academic content to aid understanding
- Offer hands-on educational and behavioral assistance
- Support use of AAC, communication boards, and visual aids as needed
- Encourage classroom participation and social connections
- Assist with transitions, engagement, and emotional regulation
- Collaborate closely with teachers, DHH specialists, speech/AAC providers, and IEP team members
- Create a supportive, inclusive environment where the student feels seen, heard, and valued
Through this rewarding position, you’ll play a vital role in helping a child access instruction, build confidence, and enjoy school. If you’re ready to bring your ASL expertise, warmth, and commitment to inclusive education, we encourage you to apply today!
Compensation for this position ranges from $29.69 to $49.69. Eligible candidates may also receive healthcare benefits, housing, and meals/incidentals. Full details of our healthcare benefits plan can be found here. This posting is open for 60 days after the posting date.
