Kokua

Kokua’s mission is to empower students by matching schools with passionate guest educators who maximize substitute teaching time. By the end of high school, teacher absences result in an average of 1+ years of lost learning time, particularly in underserved communities. We solve this problem by placing dedicated substitutes (or Guest Teachers) into classrooms across the United States. We believe that proximity is power, and that one role model can change a student’s life forever. We are a driven team looking to make a lasting impact for future generations. As the world adjusts to new ways of life, inspiring role models are as important as ever, and we’re looking for a new team member to drive this mission forward.
