A Remote Science Teacher is an educator who teaches science subjects to students online, rather than in a physical classroom. They use virtual platforms, video conferencing, and digital resources to deliver lessons, assign coursework, and assess student progress. Remote Science Teachers may work for online schools, tutoring services, or traditional schools offering virtual learning options.

Many schools offer professional development or collaborative teacher groups to share best practices and strategies specific to remote science instruction.
