Freelance/Contracted Remote (+/-2 hours from Germany)
About the job
Kialo is looking for two remote, freelance classroom resource specialists to join our global instructional content and promotions team.
As one of our Educational Content Coordinators, you will be responsible for producing educator-oriented resources including blog articles, ready-to-use classroom content, promotional resources and lesson plans. We would love to hear from educators, past or present, who want to use their experiences to inform and create relevant, engaging content for students and teachers.
Kialo is the world’s largest argument mapping site: facilitating, capturing and visualizing the world’s hardest debates. We have grown into a community with tens of thousands of debates and millions of contributions since our launch in 2017.
In November 2019 we launched Kialo Edu, our dedicated site for educators, which grew to almost half a million users within the first three years. Educators worldwide use it to teach critical thinking and facilitate thoughtful classroom discussion.
Responsibilities
All Kialo staff begin with a six-week probationary onboarding period, during which we focus on training: learning about our site, building familiarity with how Kialo discussions work and what can be achieved using them, and refining the specific skills we will need from you in this role. After this period, you would be responsible for:
- Creating and maintaining high-quality resources for educators, using and promoting Kialo’s product framework. This involves significant research and writing work, and most importantly, an awareness of the target audiences: both educators and students, from age 8 up!.
- Testing use cases for various classroom contexts and providing input on product design and features.
- Other tasks as arising and agreed, including providing input and feedback on site documentation and community resources.
Essential Skills
- A creative mind with a strong understanding of classroom needs and best-practices.
- Able to take verbal and written briefs, ask questions, and adapt based on those responses to produce high-quality output. Strong attention to detail, with a ‘perfectionist’ streak.
- Self-starter mentality – diligent, self-directed and organized, able to work with a high degree of independence in a globally distributed team.
- Fluent (native or native-like) in English, with an exceptional command of written English. Experienced in proofreading your own and others’ work, with the ability to adjust your writing voice to a range of audiences and contexts.
- Minimum of a Bachelor’s Degree.
- Minimum two years experience working directly in the educational sector: ideally in classroom teaching, resource creation, or textbook writing.
Nice-to-haves
- Experience in freelance and remote working is highly desirable.
- Advanced proficiency in a second language is desirable.
- Experience in edtech contexts is desirable.
- Experience teaching STEM subjects is a plus.
- Experience in blog and social media content creation is desirable.
- Experience with video and image editing is desirable.
Further details
- Remote position.
- Set hourly pay rate for contracted work.
- Minimum of 30 hours paid time per week. We are flexible and can increase this up to 40 hours, depending on your needs.
- Flexible working hours. Ideally work a few hours most workdays, so that spontaneous interactions are possible.
- Regularly scheduled meetings each week, primarily between 15:00-18:00 GMT.
- Working from a time zone that is +/-2 hours from Berlin, Germany.
Our rates begin at 29 USD/hr during our probationary training period, rising to 31 USD/hr once the training period is successfully completed, with scope to increase depending on our satisfaction with your work; this would equate to around $46-62k annually, contingent on hours worked. We are looking for full-time staff (30+ hrs/week), although during our probationary training period, we will require you for 20 hrs/week.
Apply for the job
Does this all sound good? Then we’d love to hear about you! We use Homerun to manage our applications – please apply at this link.

A CV/resume
A cover letter
Two samples of your writing:
- A lesson plan, for any subject, to any age range of students. Two page maximum.
- An explanation of any given topic pitched to an audience of students aged 12-15. Minimum 250 words, maximum 500.
We are looking for people who can explain a topic clearly and concisely, with an awareness of how to modulate tone and language to suit a school-aged audience. You are welcome to choose any topic for the two writing samples, although we recommend that you select a topic that would be covered as part of a standard curriculum where you are based. There is no need to write something specifically for us – samples from resources and/or lessons you’ve previously prepared and used are perfectly fine.
Shortlisted candidates will be initially asked to attend a video pre-interview with one of our hiring team, during which we will discuss next steps and answer any initial questions you may have. Please note that our hiring process includes a (paid) writing task and a second, full interview. We look forward to hearing from you!

French Tutor (Gold Team)
- Remote Worldwide
- Contract
Duolingo is piloting a project where we connect real students with real language instructors.
Our learners will be able to text their tutor a question related to grammar, vocabulary clarification, requesting pronunciation feedback, and help with “casual conversation”.
You would interact with students through a chat interface and communicate by sending text, audio clips, and short pre-recorded videos. While students can ask questions 24/7, the expectation is that you respond within roughly 24 hours – therefore your work hours will be very flexible and spread throughout the day.
