Summer Instructor - Brandeis University TRiO Upward Bound

Brandeis University's TRiO Upward Bound Program is seeking dedicated and experienced educators to teach during our six-week summer program, designed to support low-income, first-generation college-bound high school students.

The Brandeis TRiO Upward Bound Program is a year-round college-preparatory initiative that serves 60 middle and high school students annually. Our summer program offers students an opportunity to engage in challenging, project-based coursework that simulates the college experience while developing essential academic skills.

Position Overview:

We are hiring instructors to teach nine sections of courses, with opportunities to teach multiple sections if desired. Courses are held Monday through Thursday, and instructors are compensated at $25 per hour. Program dates for 2026 are June 29 - August 7 (Holiday July 3rd).

We seek instructors for courses in the following subject areas:

  • Research Skills

  • Reading and Writing on Social Justice Topics

  • College Essay Writing + SAT preps

  • Math (Algebra, Geometry, etc.)

  • Biology, Chemistry, and Climate + Laboratory Science

  • Financial Literacy (Fafsa, Pell Grant, Loan Forgiveness and Scholarships)

  • Foreign Language (Spanish, Arabic, French etc)

Key Responsibilities:

  • Design and implement a rigorous, engaging, and culturally responsive curriculum aligned with Upward Bound's mission, yearly theme, and the Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks (guidance available if needed).

  • Develop a culminating project that allows students to apply their learning and present their work on the final day of the program.

  • Foster an inclusive and supportive classroom environment, incorporating multicultural perspectives and interactive learning strategies.

  • Develop assessment tools to measure student progress, engagement, and achievement throughout the course.

  • Design and facilitate a class project to be presented at the end of the summer during Family Day.

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in a relevant subject area.

  • Experience working with diverse student populations, particularly first-generation and low-income students.

  • Familiarity with the Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks (preferred but not required).

  • Strong instructional skills with an emphasis on active, student-centered learning.

  • Bilingual abilities (preferred but not required).

This is an excellent opportunity for educators who are passionate about student success, equity in education, and innovative teaching practices. If you are interested in shaping the academic journeys of motivated students, we encourage you to apply.
