About Learner Circle
Learner Circle works with children across the world to help them find their voice through writing.
We don’t “rewrite” children’s stories—we guide, refine, and protect their original voice, helping young writers grow into confident authors.
If you’ve ever stayed up late finishing Harry Potter, Matilda, Percy Jackson, or The Chronicles of Narnia—and believe children’s stories deserve to be taken seriously—this role is for you.
Role Overview
As a Story Editor / Reviewer, you will work closely with children’s manuscripts—short stories, novels, poems, and anthologies—to help them become clear, coherent, age-appropriate, and publish-ready without losing the child’s originality.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys mentoring, teaching, or guiding children through creative expression.
Key Responsibilities
- Read and review children’s stories with care, patience, and empathy
- Improve clarity, structure, flow, and grammar while preserving the child’s voice
- Flag logical gaps, missing transitions, or confusing plot points
- Suggest what to add / what to clarify instead of rewriting content
- Ensure language is age-appropriate and publication-safe
- Participate in editor meetings (online) to gently guide children
- Provide written feedback that is encouraging, specific, and actionable
- Collaborate with the Learner Circle editorial team on publishing standards

- Have experience interacting with children
(classroom teaching, workshops, libraries, creative writing clubs, mentoring, homeschooling, etc.)
- Genuinely love children’s books and stories
- Believe children’s imagination should be nurtured, not overwritten
- Are patient, kind, and able to explain feedback gently
- Enjoy spotting story potential and helping it shine
- Can balance creativity + structure
Must-Have Qualities

- Familiarity with children’s literature
(Harry Potter, Roald Dahl, Enid Blyton, Rick Riordan, etc.)
- Ability to give constructive feedback without discouraging the child
- Respect for originality, emotions, and child psychology
- Comfortable working remotely and meeting deadlines
Bonus (Not Mandatory, But Lovely to Have)
