K to 5 Educator - Field Trips &/or Weekends (Part-Time)

Join us to work with kids and aircraft at the Hiller Aviation Museum!

Educators teach hands-on science- and flight-themed lessons to students while working behind-the-scenes at a unique Museum located at one of California’s busiest small airports. This role engages with school groups, families, and many other diverse audiences on a daily basis to provide a unique, hands-on learning experience. Activities include leading hands-on science lessons for PK-8 school groups, facilitating programs and activities for Scout groups, leading assemblies for family events, and seasonal opportunities for expanded hours teaching Aviation Camp, if desired. The position uses teaching and facilitation skills to work both at the museum, and off-site for programming as needed.

Requirements

- Experience working with elementary or middle school children

- Effective classroom management skills

- Ability to engage and effectively communicate with diverse audiences in a variably-paced environment.

- Excellent customer service, public speaking, and listening skills.

- Experience working with youth in a traditional or non-traditional educational setting is required.

- A high school diploma or equivalent (such as a GED) is required. Bachelor's degree in a related field is preferred.

- Familiarity with science and/or aviation is a plus but not essential—educators comfortable with elementary-aged students can readily learn the aerospace-specific content with the provided curriculum and training.

Working Conditions and Schedule

- This is an on-site role.

- Field trip programs take place weekday mornings, with typical shifts of 2-3 hours between 8 AM – 1 PM.

- Weekend Educator Shifts run between 3 to 8 hours depending on assignment.

- Seasonal Aviation Camp shifts fall between Monday-Friday 8:00 AM – 4:30 PM.

Shifts vary based on school reservations and instructor availability, but weekday educators typically work 2-4 days of field trips per week, for a total of 30-40 hours/month and weekend educators typically work 1-3 weekend shifts a month with about 8-20 hours/month.

To apply, please send resume and cover letter in PDF format by email. Please also indicate in your email your availability, days and timeframe (e.g. Mon 8-1, Tues. 10-1, etc). A cover letter or an email introduction is required. Emails with only a resume attached will not be reviewed.
