  • Tailor tour content to align with school groups' learning goals and classroom curriculum.
  • Adapt tour content and delivery for groups with special needs, English Language Learners, and other diverse audiences.
  • Maintain and monitor gallery program supplies and spaces, including touch objects, worksheets, and Learning Center materials.
  • Contribute to content-driven and exhibition-based activities and resources, such as gallery guides, special exhibition tours, MOCA Heroes magazines, lesson plans, blog posts, and classroom companions.
  • Assist with the Museum's quarterly Family Festivals and other family programs, as needed.
  • Facilitate workshops and programs offsite, such as community outreach events and MOCA in the Classroom visits.
  • Assist with marketing campaigns, targeted outreach, and in building sustained community partnerships to grow our school programs audience.
  • Participate in bi-monthly educator gatherings.
  • Other duties, as assigned.

Necessary Qualifications:
  • Two plus years' experience working with children ages K-12, especially in museums, informal learning environments, or schools.
  • Regular availability 2-3 days per week. Occasional weekend availability.
  • Proficiency facilitating Zoom meetings and webinars.
  • Strong interest in museum education.

Preferred Qualifications:
  • BA in Education, History Education, Art Education, Museum Studies, or related field. Background in Asian American Studies, American Studies, U.S. History, Art History, or Chinese Culture.
  • Prior museum teaching experience.
  • Experience interacting with diverse groups.
  • Experience working with groups with special needs.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
  • Willingness to engage audiences using learner-centered teaching strategies such as object-based learning, visual thinking strategies, and inquiry-based dialogue.
  • Bilingual Mandarin or Cantonese highly preferred.
