Job Description

IEP Therapy is seeking a dedicated Teacher for the Visually Impaired to join our Educational Services team within the Education, Training & E-Learning department. In this role, you will provide specialized instructional services to students with visual impairments, ensuring they receive personalized support to access the curriculum and meet their Individualized Education Program (IEP) goals. You will conduct functional vision and learning media assessments, develop and implement IEP goals and objectives related to vision services, and collaborate closely with classroom teachers, related service providers, families, and school administrators. Using evidence‑based strategies, you will teach braille, assistive technology, orientation and mobility concepts in collaboration with O&M specialists, and other compensatory skills that support independent learning. You will adapt classroom materials into accessible formats, including large print, audio, tactile graphics, and digital resources using assistive technologies and accessibility tools. Documentation and data‑driven decision‑making are key aspects of this position; you will monitor student progress, maintain accurate service logs, and participate in IEP meetings to share progress and make recommendations. IEP Therapy offers a supportive and collaborative culture that emphasizes professional growth, reflective practice, and high‑quality, student‑centered services. As part of our team, you will have access to resources for continuing education, professional development, and mentoring to deepen your expertise in visual impairment and special education. This position is ideal for a compassionate teacher who is passionate about accessibility, skilled in adapting instruction, and eager to make a direct and meaningful impact on students’ educational experiences. You will typically work within school settings, following the school calendar, with opportunities to serve students in both general and special education environments. The Teacher for the Visually Impaired will communicate regularly with parents and caregivers, provide training and consultation to school staff on visual impairment, and advocate for appropriate accommodations, technology, and services that enable students to engage fully in their learning. By joining IEP Therapy, you will help empower students with visual impairments to build independence, confidence, and academic success while growing your own career in a mission‑driven, collaborative environment.
