We are seeking a passionate and dedicated Art Teacher for light, part-time work in Chicago, IL. Over the past nine weeks of summer, our organization has successfully delivered over 150 art classes each week to young artists ranging in ages from 20 months to 8th grade. This has been an exciting journey, and we aim to double our efforts next summer and beyond, continuing to spread joyful artistic moments to our young artists. As part of our enthusiastic team, you will have the opportunity to inspire creativity and imagination in children through art education. We encourage retired and substitute teachers looking for a part-time teaching opportunity to apply. The role requires access to reliable transportation, as the job involves travel within the Southside Chicago area. As the educational director, I will handle site and director communications, professional curriculum development, and new site acquisition and growth. You will be able to apply your collaborative, classroom management, and leadership skills in a supportive environment. The curriculum is fully provided, so no lesson planning is necessary, allowing you to focus on teaching and engaging with the children. You will help develop children ages 20 months to 14 years through flexible, part-time hours that include afternoons, evenings, and weekends. Training will be provided and paid, ensuring you are well-prepared for your role.
