FAQs
What hours are these roles?
+
Most instructor roles run in the afternoon, roughly 2:00–6:00 PM on school days. Camp roles run full days during summer and school breaks. Schedules are set by site, and you tell us which days you can commit to.
Do I need a teaching credential?
+
A credential is not required for instructor roles, and it is welcome. Credentialed teachers often step into site lead positions. What every instructor completes is the same: reference checks, Live Scan and TB clearance, mandated reporter training, and our curriculum training before taking a room.
How much do these positions pay?
+
Pay is listed per session on every posting, since it varies by role, site, and program. Open a listing on the job board to see the exact rate before you apply.
What is Live Scan and how does it work?
+
Live Scan is California's fingerprint background check through the Department of Justice and FBI, required for anyone working with students. It and a current TB clearance are completed before a first session. We tell you where to go and walk you through the process during onboarding.
Can I work at more than one site?
+
Yes, and many instructors do. Tell us your availability and how far you are willing to travel, and we will build a schedule from the sites near you.
Nothing on the board fits my subject. Should I still apply?
+
Please do. We open new classes every season, and a general application tells us what you can teach so we can reach out when a match opens.
Can’t find a program that fits?
Tell us what you can teach: robotics, art, sports, music, anything. We open new classes every season and we’ll reach out when there’s a match.
