Spark Curiosity. Create Chaos (The Safe Kind). Get Paid!
Do you love sparking curiosity in young minds? Do you have a flair for the dramatic and a passion for making kids smile?
Mad Science of Washington DC is looking for fun, high-energy, and dynamic individuals to join our team of Workshop Performers! If you want a job where you can make things explode (safely!), inspire the next generation of scientists, and get paid to have fun, this is the ultimate gig for you.
What You'll Do
  • Perform & Teach: Lead high-energy, interactive science workshops and demonstrations for elementary school-aged children.
  • Travel: Drive to various schools, community centers, and event locations across the DMV (DC, Maryland, Virginia) area.
  • Inspire: Turn complex science concepts into unforgettable, hands-on fun!

What We're Looking For
  • Experience with Kids is a MUST: Whether you've been a teacher, camp counselor, tutor, actor, or youth group leader - you know how to command a room of energetic kids and keep them engaged.
  • The "WOW" Factor: You are outgoing, animated, and not afraid to be silly.
  • Flexibility: You have a flexible schedule and are looking for a rewarding side hustle rather than a strict 9-to-5.
  • Reliable Transportation: You must have your own reliable vehicle to transport workshop kits to various locations.

Training & Support (No Science Degree Required!)
Don't worry if you're not a certified rocket scientist - .we've got you covered!

  • Workshops are easy to learn using our proven, step-by-step curriculum.
  • You will be fully shadowed and supported by our team until you are ready to fly solo!

The Real Scoop on Hours & Pay
Please Note: This is an excellent, well-paying gig perfect for actors, students, freelancers, or anyone looking for a fun supplemental income. Because our scheduling depends on school calendars and event bookings, hours will fluctuate weekly.
⚡This position is not a match for those relying on a steady, fixed 40-hour weekly income
