Open Interview! Instructors wanted!


Details
Urban Workshop’s education programs are growing! We are seeking highly motivated instructors to keep up with the demand.
If you love technology, have solid shop skills, and previous teaching / mentoring experience, we need your help as a full or part-time instructor for either our Adult and/or Youth programs. Formal teaching credentials are not required, but enthusiasm, a willingness to learn new technology, and strong desire to contribute is definitely required. We provide training in all areas of the education programs to ensure instructors are completely capable of supporting the program. All new instructors will be placed with an experienced instructor for their first "semester".
The Urban Workshop education programs use a highly developed, proprietary curriculum that is well defined and supported. Instructors are expected to prepare for their individual classes (materials and tools from our onsite inventory) as well as work with the students and clean up / restock after class.
Ideal candidates will have these desired skills and abilities:
· Shop and/or maker experience with tools and electronics
· Experience teaching or youth leadership (class room management)
· Be well organized, flexible, and reliable
· Pass Live-scan background check
· Able to remain confident/calm with groups of students using large power tools
· Mechanically inclined with good shop and computer skills
· Able to commit to complete calendar year schedule (Youth Program)
· Male and Female instructors needed
· Desire and self-motivation to learn (we have some 200+ separate lessons)
· Good communication skills with students, parents, and families
· Able to think on the fly when a project goes wrong, tool breaks, or part is missing
Salary and benefits:
· Salary commensurate with experience
· 401k
· Access to Urban Workshop facilities and classes
Interested individuals should submit a resume and “Maker” / project portfolio of projects to info@UrbanWorkshop.Net with “Teaching Program resume” in the subject line.
