What is a teaching instructor?

Teaching instructors are educational professionals responsible for delivering instruction, guiding student learning, and supporting academic development in a particular subject area. They may work in schools, colleges, universities, or training centers, and often design lesson plans, assess student progress, and provide feedback. While the specific duties can vary depending on the institution and level of education, teaching instructors play a crucial role in facilitating classroom learning and fostering an engaging educational environment.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a teaching instructor, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Teaching Instructor, you need strong subject matter expertise, effective lesson planning abilities, and typically a relevant degree or teaching certification. Familiarity with digital learning platforms, classroom management tools, and curriculum development software is often required. Outstanding communication, patience, and adaptability help engage students and foster a positive learning environment. These skills and qualities are essential for delivering effective instruction and supporting diverse student needs.

How do teaching instructors typically collaborate with other faculty and staff in an educational institution?

Teaching Instructors often work closely with colleagues from their own departments as well as support staff, such as academic advisors and administrative personnel. Collaboration can include co-developing curriculum materials, participating in departmental meetings, and coordinating student assessments or extracurricular activities. Effective communication and teamwork are essential, as instructors may need to align their teaching strategies or share feedback about student progress. This collaborative environment not only enriches the learning experience for students but also provides instructors with professional support and opportunities for interdisciplinary growth.

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!
