Chess Instructor
Silver Knights Chess Academy is looking for people who want to make a positive difference in the lives of elementary school children. We have taught chess to over 120,000 children in our 19-year history. Come teach with us!
Pay: Starting at $55 / hour long meeting
Please note the total time commitment is longer due to setup and cleanup.
You will be a great fit if you:
- Play chess! You don't have to be a master-level player, but you do need interest and enthusiasm.
- Want to work with children in a small group teaching setting (ages 5-11).
- Are available to work part-time during "after-school" hours (fall/winter/spring)
- Have experience as a camp counselor, tutor, teacher, coach, after school instructor, or preschool teacher
- Are comfortable driving and have a flexible schedule with availability during after school programs, for example, an Uber or Lyft driver, a student, or a retired person looking for a part-time job.
You will receive thorough, paid training on how to help children learn chess in a small group teaching setting.
Here's a sample schedule of how your day might look:
- 2:45pm - Arrive at school, check in, set up
- 3:00pm - Kids arrive, you teach lesson
- 3:20pm - Kids play practice games
- 4:00pm - Clean up, parent pickup
Qualifications:
- Knowledgeable in the rules and basic strategy of chess, or willing to learn
- Experience or interest in working with elementary-age children, for instance as a small group tutor. Experience in a classroom setting is a plus!
- Have a reliable vehicle for transportation
- Ability to lift 25 lbs of teaching equipment
- Ability to learn and use new software tools
Responsibilities:
- Manage a classroom of 10-20 students
- Use our curriculum to demonstrate and effectively communicate all of the basic rules (piece movement, how to castle, check, checkmate, etc) and strategy
- Promote good sportsmanship among students
- Responsibly store and maintain all teaching equipment and materials
Guaranteed response within 72 hours of applying.
As a chess instructor, you are eligible for some cool perks, including a free Diamond-level chess.com membership for yourself, staff parties, and more!
