Prepare for the Ethos call
Ethos's AI interviewer asks about your Classroom Teacher background. These are our own practice questions for that work, not Ethos's.
How do you establish classroom management routines at the start of a school year that hold up once the novelty wears off?
I introduce a small set of clear, consistently enforced expectations rather than a long list of rules, and I practice the routines explicitly in the first weeks rather than just stating them once, since consistency in enforcement early on is what determines whether the routines actually stick through the rest of the year.
What's your approach to differentiating instruction in a classroom where students are at noticeably different skill levels?
I plan a core lesson with built in extension and support options rather than writing separate lessons for each level, since that keeps the class working toward the same objective while giving each student an appropriately challenging entry point. I use formative checks throughout the lesson to adjust which students need more support in the moment.
How do you communicate a student's academic or behavioral concerns to a parent in a way that keeps them engaged rather than defensive?
I lead with specific, observed behavior rather than a general characterization, and I frame the conversation around a plan going forward rather than just the problem itself, since parents respond much better to a concrete, collaborative approach than to a conversation that feels like a complaint.
What's your process for adjusting a lesson in real time when it becomes clear students aren't grasping the material as planned?
I check for understanding early in the lesson rather than waiting until an assessment reveals the gap, and if it's clear the approach isn't landing, I'd shift to a different explanation or example rather than continuing through the planned material at the same pace regardless of comprehension.

Common questions
Is Ethos regular AI training work like rating chatbot responses?
No. Ethos is an expert network. AI labs, investment funds and large companies pay for your domain knowledge (deal analysis, clinical reasoning, legal logic, financial modeling) in three formats: multi-week consulting engagements, 30 to 60 minute advisory calls, and research surveys. Listings like this one are the AI-lab engagements, where you write or review expert material for a model.
Do I need to keep applying for projects on Ethos?
No. When your profile is live, Ethos matches you to new projects from your career history, so companies find you. Each finished project raises your Expert Score, which brings you better-paid work.
How many hours a week is this Classroom Teacher work?
Between 5 and 20 hours a week. At $80/hr that is $400 to $1,600 a week. You set your own hours.
What experience does this Classroom Teacher listing ask for?
The listing asks for 4+ years teaching, instructional coaching, or school administration experience in a K-12 environment; direct ownership of curriculum planning, parent communications, or school improvement documentation, with fluency in standards-aligned instructional design; and expert-level document, spreadsheet, and slide craftsmanship, with excellent written communication and attention to detail. Ethos's interviewer builds your profile from your CV, so have the roles that show this ready to talk through.
How much does this specific role pay?
This listing is posted at $80/hr, an hourly rate. Pay can change after we check the listing, so confirm the rate on the platform's application page.
What happens when I click Apply on this listing?
The link opens Ethos's sign-up. There is no form for this listing: Ethos's AI interviewer asks about your career in a 5 to 15 minute call, builds your profile from it, and then matches you to projects like this one. Keep your CV open and cover the experience the Qualifications above ask for.
Who built Ethos and is it legitimate?
Yes. Ethos was founded in London in 2024 by James Lo (McKinsey, SoftBank Vision Fund) and Daniel Mankowitz (Google DeepMind research scientist and lead author of AlphaDev). It raised a $22.75M Series A led by a16z in May 2026, with General Catalyst and XTX Markets participating, and works with AI labs, private equity firms, hedge funds and consultancies.
