Description
Look around any classroom and you’ll see students distracted by the latest TikTok video or funny meme. What if educators weren’t competing with entertaining content, but were actually the ones sharing it? We’re looking for people who can deliver fun virtual activities for middle school students. Could that be you?
gt.school is transforming education through innovative technology and research-backed learning methods. Our adaptive learning platform offers students all they need to learn, but even well-designed curricula and great course materials can fall flat in the absence of effective delivery.
That’s where you come in! We are looking for entertaining instructors that will engage and motivate kids to learn in a completely new way. This role is about leading live sessions that promote learning through fun and entertaining activities. There is no need to be a teacher or expert - the apps provide the content, and you must deliver it in a way that makes them love learning it.
If you love to entertain kids while making a lasting impact on their lives, we invite you to our team!
What you will be doing
- Entertaining students. You will lead virtual live sessions with 5th to 8th grade students that teach through fun and engaging activities.
- Leading skills workshops. Kids learn valuable life skills like negotiation and public speaking, in addition to the traditional school curriculum.
What you will NOT be doing
- Virtual lectures. You will have access to a variety of tools and technologies that will make sessions entertaining, not boring lectures.
- Creating content. The content and activities are provided by the school, and your responsibility is to motivate kids to learn them.
Key Responsibilities
Motivate students and facilitate their learning through entertaining live sessions
Candidate Requirements
- Experience engaging kids in fun activities, such as in an afterschool program, summer camp, or mentorship capacity - paid, volunteer, and internship experiences accepted
- Ability to relate to the interests and culture of 5th-8th-grade US students
- No prior teaching experience or subject matter expertise is required!
