This job is for part time/seasonal chess coaches at locations around Central New Mexico. We are looking for applicants who are interested in learning and growing while coaching chess.

Coaches will also help us run periodic chess tournaments and community outreach events.
School year programs run more or less during before and after school hours: 7:45am-9:15am and 2:15pm-4:30pm. Schedules are flexible and will be set based on what fits into your schedule and when coaches are needed
