What is a 1099 contractor?
A 1099 or "independent" contractor has greater autonomy than a W-2 employee and files their own taxes/acquires their own health insurance (we can support with tax savings tracking and healthcare research). For example, although we expect to have a full case-load of students for you and allow you to pursue passions with us, you can still take other side work to pursue your other passions. You are, in a sense, a business owner under our business.
