We do the work that changes students’ lives–and we need you!
Want to be a part of a team that creates spaces for neurodivergent children to thrive? Are you passionate about knowledge and making math more accessible? Working at Made for Math is more than just a job–we are shaping the future of math education!
And we’ve been looking for you.
MFM is not your typical learning center. We use systematic and explicit math instruction to help students with dyslexia, ADHD, or autism finally “get” math!
What is structured math?
Structured math is a method that involves the use of the CRA model—Concrete, Representational, and Abstract.—to help students truly understand math, not just memorize steps. We also take the time to break down vocabulary and make it meaningful to students. Our systematic approach helps students move grade levels in months, not years. We close the gap!
About Us
Based in Gilbert, AZ
Our team enjoys working online and from home with the occasional lunch meet-up with coworkers. We are currently hiring in these states: Arizona, Idaho, Florida, South Carolina, Texas, Utah, and Washington.
Life as a Structured Math Specialist
Are you ready to join a group of individuals who are passionate about teaching with empathy and understanding, but most importantly promote FUN?
Perks of the Job
Weekends to yourself
We encourage our team to take breaks and rest when needed. MFM believes in a healthy work/life balance and we won’t ask you to work on the weekends!
No Papers To Grade
Our teachers have the freedom to do what works for the student instead of being bound by a state-mandated curriculum. Which also means no papers to grade and no prepping for state tests. 😎
Work from Home
Can you say bathroom breaks whenever you want? No masks or germs? + Pets as coworkers? Sign me up.
All Systematic Training Included
We welcome any applicant with experience working with students in mathematics and have a deep desire to be part of a mission to help differently wired students succeed in mathematics.
Time for Self-Care
Have you been wanting to take that vacation? Go-ahead! Oh, and don’t worry about student behavior while you’re away either.
No more spending your own money on classroom supplies
MFM provides our teachers with all of the manipulatives they use during teaching and other resources they might need!
