Original job description

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!

SKC is an EEO employer and is a safe and drug-free workplace.
