Chicago, United States Kids Science Labs Full time
Job DescriptionJob Description

Kids Science Labs, the world leader in center-based creativity and innovation education for the past 10 years, is adapting to the changing needs of the educational world and seeking to add our next great teacher who will dynamically lead hands-on STEAM lessons. The successful teacher, a motivated, passionate individual, will join our team to guide kids in their discovery of hands-on science, problem solving, and creativity at our gorgeous learning centers and partner schools. A successful teacher must not only believe strongly in KSL's mission, but also have the ability to adapt, learn, and most importantly, engage kids ages 6-12.

While it is great if you have your teaching certification, we believe firmly that great teachers are everywhere, so whether you are an artist, nanny, or teacher in a traditional classroom, if you can communicate well, engage kids, and have the desire to provide exceptional customer service to fellow teachers, parents, and the kids that visit KSL weekly, then we likely want to speak with you.

At KSL, we inspire kids today, to build a better future tomorrow and as such, it is not just about science, but more about leading kids in their everyday discoveries using hands-on science as a tool for learning.

In this new teacher role, you will have the great opportunity to:

  • Bring joy to students in a classroom setting (~25 students)
  • Bring your teaching expertise to deliver the best hands-on STEAM lessons in the world
  • Collaborate with classroom teachers for 45-minute hands-on science lessons

Requirements

  • Ability to joyfully communicate with parents and classroom teachers of students
  • Enjoy being with, engaging, and adapting to children
  • BS/BA degree (preferably in education, art, science)
  • Ability to learn, adapt, and operate in a dynamic and creative environment
  • Strong classroom management skills and preparation skills
  • Desire to help explore questions rather than give kids answers

Benefits

  • KSL prides itself on being one of the most engaging workplaces in the U.S. and our benefits at a glance are a reflection of that environment:
  • Opportunity to grow, develop, and contribute for a season or a lifetime with founders and colleagues who care about you and your future.
  • Professional development via e-learning platform called KSL University
