ENTHUSIASTIC people needed to lead science after school programs, workshops, special events and birthday parties for kids! Our Fall programs will be starting soon. Apply now and make a difference!
Mad Science of Greater Boston (which has been offering cool science for kids since 1995) is looking for enthusiastic people for our hands-on, interactive and FUN science programs throughout the Greater Boston area. It's a mixture of teaching and performing! We offer a variety of enrichment programs for elementary school age and pre-k children including after school programs, workshops, birthday parties, and large science shows. All of our programs are taught at the kids' locations and last approximately one hour. We look for educators, performers, and anyone who loves working with children.
The Mad Science Instructor position is part time. Your total number of programs per week is based upon your individual availability. Our programs run during the week and on weekends. There is a weekly instructor meeting held at our office in Waltham. Training, class plans and materials are all provided! All you have to provide is your experience, your professionalism, and your enthusiasm for working with children! This is a great opportunity for resume building and getting involved with the Greater Boston education community!
Requirements:
- Our instructors travel to their programs, so you must own a car or have 100% reliable access to one.
- You should have experience with groups of children such as experience as a camp counselor, coach, after school program instructor, educator, etc. (Only babysitting is not enough, sorry).
- Outgoing and FUN personality (don't be afraid to be a little MAD)! We are not "teachers", we are Mad Scientists!
- Lots of energy! If you enjoy teaching, performing and working with kids this is your dream job!
Compensation for new instructors begins at $25 per hour long program, and increases due to additional compensation for distant classes as well as by "step increases" over time for continuing Mad Science instructors.
