About the Opportunity
Northeastern University School of Law is hiring new faculty to teach in our Legal Skills in Social Context (LSSC) program during the 2027-2028 academic year. We are seeking to fill a full-time position for Assistant/Associate Teaching Professor to teach the LSSC course. LSSC is the cornerstone of the first-year curriculum at Northeastern and reflects the school's commitment to both experiential education and social justice. The 8-credit course is designed to enhance law students' skills development with a social justice lawyering experience. The course is comprised of two parts: a traditional legal research and writing component and a faculty-supervised social justice research project in partnership with a community organization. The curriculum for the course challenges students to grapple with law as a social construct and its impact on historically excluded populations and to examine the roles of lawyers in the pursuit of justice and equity. Students learn and develop a wide array of essential lawyering skills and have an opportunity to apply their skills by putting them to immediate use in support of underserved communities.
The School of Law is a national leader in experiential legal education, with a deep commitment to law in service of the public interest and to engaged scholarship and interdisciplinary collaboration. In making faculty appointments, the School of Law seeks to enhance its innovative curriculum, which combines experiential learning with rigorous analytical training and interdisciplinarity.
The search committee is especially interested in qualified candidates who can contribute to the excellence of the academic community through their research, teaching, and/or service. We also encourage applicants to share how their background and experience will contribute to the Northeastern community.
Applications will be reviewed upon receipt and the search will continue until the position is filled. More information regarding this position can be obtained by contacting the Legal Skills in Social Context Program Director, Margaret Hahn-DuPont, via email at m.hahndupont@northeastern.edu.
Responsibilities:
The new hire will be responsible for teaching two sections of the LSSC course, which includes teaching legal research, writing, and lawyering skills to first-year law students and supervising two student social justice research projects, conducted in partnership with a community or public interest organization. Sections are taught either on ground or in the law school’s evening FlexJD program, which is fully remote and partially asynchronous. Therefore, there is an expectation that FlexJD program teaching will be included in the new hire’s teaching package.
Qualifications:
Required: Applicants must hold a J.D. from an ABA-accredited law school, or LL.B. or foreign equivalent, required by employment start date. Candidates must have expertise in teaching legal research, writing, and lawyering skills, as well as a demonstrated commitment to using law as a means for advancing social justice.

Tips for Your Remote Teaching Professor Job Search
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote teaching professor openings from across the U.S. in one place, so you can find roles that match your subject area and apply directly without sorting through unrelated postings.
Show your async teaching track in applications
Remote employers want proof you can run a course without real-time supervision. Lead your application materials with examples of asynchronous course design, online discussion facilitation, and the learning management systems you've used, such as Canvas or Blackboard.
Demonstrate written communication from the start
Remote teaching professor hiring is largely evaluated through written exchanges. Treat your cover letter and email correspondence as a live sample of how you'll communicate with students and colleagues. Clarity and tone matter as much as credentials.
Prepare for a remote teaching demonstration
Many remote hiring committees ask for a live or recorded teaching demo over video. Practice delivering a focused 15-minute lesson on camera, managing slides, and prompting participation in a virtual format before your first screening call.
Remote Teaching Professor Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote teaching professor job?
Target employers who have built remote-first academic teams, such as online universities, continuing education providers, and corporate learning departments. Remote hiring managers screen hard for async communication skills, self-directed course management, and the ability to engage students without in-person cues. A portfolio showing fully online course design, discussion facilitation, and student outcomes gives you a clear edge over candidates whose experience is classroom-only.
Which companies hire remote teaching professors?
Remote teaching professor roles are posted by William & Mary, Northern Kentucky University, and Faculty and others right now, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These include online universities, professional certification bodies, and distributed corporate training teams that run entirely remote academic programs.
Can you get a remote teaching professor job with no experience?
Yes, but remote entry roles are harder to land because you're expected to manage your own schedule and troubleshoot technical issues without on-site support from day one. Online adjunct positions and asynchronous course facilitation contracts are the most accessible entry points. Showing completed course builds, volunteer instructional design work, or strong student feedback from any teaching context helps substitute for a formal remote employment record.
Do you need a degree for remote teaching professor jobs?
Usually, but the specific degree requirement depends heavily on the subject area and employer type. Online universities typically require a master's or doctorate in the relevant field, while corporate learning departments and professional training firms often weigh subject-matter expertise, instructional design skills, and demonstrated student outcomes alongside or instead of advanced academic credentials.
Which industries hire the most remote teaching professors?
Most remote teaching professor openings sit in Education, per current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors rely on distributed teams to deliver fully online degree programs, professional certifications, and workforce upskilling at scale.
