The Program for Advancement of Learning (PAL) at Curry College is an internationally recognized program, serving students who have specific learning disabilities (SLD), Attention Deficits (ADHD), and/or Executive Function Challenges (EF). The program's metacognitive approach has been a model for over 50 years. The Program for Advancement of Learning (PAL) is seeking a candidate to instruct these students using strength-based, humanistic/holistic, developmental, and motivational approaches.

The PAL Department at Curry College invites applications for part-time faculty to join our distinguished faculty at the Associate Lecturer rank. Scheduling will depend on student schedules and the number of students in the professor's load. We are seeking candidates who can take a minimum of 7 students, equivalent to two academic courses. The candidate will meet with each student for 2.5 hours per week either one-on-one or in small groups.

The successful candidate should be able to address current department needs and goals, which include expertise in dealing with issues such as: co-morbid disorders that accompany learning differently, knowledge in educational assessment and cognitive testing, and a current understanding of laws that govern adults with disabilities. Faculty would be expected to advance program goals through metacognitive and transformational teaching and learning. The review of applications will begin immediately.
