TVI / Teacher of the Deaf & Hard of Hearing… at Pediatric… · Cordele

Part-Time or Full-Time | Hybrid Schedules Considered | School Calendar: Summers & Holidays Off | Crisp County, GA (South Georgia: Cordele area, right on I-75)

One specialist can change everything for a student. Pediatric Developmental Services (PDS) is hiring a Teacher of the Visually Impaired (TVI) and/or a Teacher of the Deaf & Hard of Hearing (DHH) to support students in schools in the Cordele area. Want a full caseload? Prefer just a few days a week? Hoping to blend on-site and virtual work? Tell us what fits your life, and we will build the schedule around you.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Your schedule, your way: Part-time and full-time options are both available.
• Hybrid friendly: Schedules that combine on-site and virtual services will be considered.
• Real impact: In a smaller community, you become the go-to expert, and students, families, and teachers notice the difference you make.

Why You Will Love Working With PDS

• Summers & holidays off: Follow the school calendar and enjoy real time to recharge.
• Flexible pay options: Customized agreements – 1099 or W2 and more! Let us build a package that works for you.
• Mentorship program: Real support from experienced educators whenever you need it.
• Fingerprinting reimbursement: We cover the cost of your background check.
• Certification help: Need help with your Georgia certification? We will walk you through it.
• W2 benefits: Health, dental & vision insurance with company contribution, plus IRA with company match (benefits available at 30+ hours per week).

What You Will Do

• Evaluate students' needs, including functional vision and learning media assessments (TVI) or communication and listening assessments (DHH).
• Write and carry out IEP goals for each student on your caseload, and take part in IEP meetings.
• Teach specialized skills such as braille, assistive technology, listening and self-advocacy skills, and use of hearing technology.
• Adapt materials and partner with classroom teachers so every student can access the general curriculum.
• Keep families involved and share quarterly progress reports.
• Collaborate with therapists, interpreters, and school staff to create an accessible, supportive learning environment.

Teacher of the Visually Impaired (TVI)
