Hackingtons is a code school for kids with locations throughout Northern CA and we're looking for instructors who have fun, outgoing and kid-friendly personalities. We teach HTML/CSS/JavaScript/Python/Unity to kids ages 8 - 15. We are looking for instructors for our Rocklin location. This position will need to be able to work from the classroom location in Rocklin.
The curriculum is fully created and maintained by our development team. It is self-paced and the instructors are there to motivate, keep kids on task, breakdown complex concepts, help debug, inspire and have fun. All the kids are different.
Instructors need to have programming knowledge in some of the languages taught. We do offer paid training time to study the curriculum and brush up on programming areas as needed. However, you've got to have the basics down. Good communication skills with parents is helpful, but more important is communicating well with the kids.
This is a great job for students, freelancers and recent graduates in transition. While we do have full time openings periodically, we strongly support our part-time employees looking for career engineering jobs. We have provided more references and recommendations for employees who we ultimately lost to full time positions than we care to count.
Starting part-time compensation is $23 - $26 per hour for lead instructors, $20 - $22 per hour for assistant instructors. Assistant instructors will generally be paired with another instructor, where a lead instructor can run their own small classes. Most weekday classes are in the after school timeframe (3:00 pm - 7:30 pm) or Saturdays (9 am - 4 pm). Classes are small, we usually have an average ratio of around 4 students to 1 instructor.
While the instructors need to be reliable, there can be some flexibility to the scheduling. Ideally, we find days and sets of classes an instructor can commit to and hold to these with minimal week-to-week schedule variance.
Because instructors work closely with children, we do conduct background checks.
Along with resume, please send a sample of your work. Thank you.
