What are the responsibilities and job description for the Lead Teacher (Part-time) position at The Coding Nonprofit?
Coding NP is looking for teachers to help the next generation of gamers, artists, and programmers learn the basics of coding! Join our awesome team of instructors in teaching girls and boys aged 6 to 12 in local after-school classes.
What we do:
Coding NP specializes in teaching elementary-aged students the joy of coding by helping them to develop their own projects: video games, animations, anything they want! With a focus on fun, our team aims to get kids excited about programming, confident in their ability to succeed by trial-and-error, and ready to continue learning on their own after the class is over.

As a company from Seattle, social and environmental awareness is in our roots. We strive to reduce our carbon footprint by minimizing travel distances, and limiting waste by being as paperless as we can. We provide scholarships to those in need, and make sure that each student in our classes feels comfortable and welcome. We understand the importance of giving every child the chance to learn about coding, so that this generation may grow into one where today's industry disparities don't exist.

We're hiring Lead Teachers to work with kids in after-school programs.
The ideal candidate has:
- Some form of teaching or tutoring experience
- A love for programming, video games, or technology
- Passion and enthusiasm for educating children
