Vandelay Education is seeking dynamic lead dental assistants with the passion, experience, and drive to train the next generation. Dental assistant instructor positions are PART-TIME with classes held on FRIDAYS or SATURDAYS from 7:30AM TO 5:30PM.

OUR PROGRAM:
Our intense, 9 or 12-week programs are designed to provide accessible, hands-on education to students from all walks of life.

Instructors will use their chair-side experience and training to teach our students the skills they need to succeed as entry-level dental assistants.
PRIMARY DUTIES:
- Prepare for each class by reviewing the curriculum, lab stations, and Powerpoint presentations provided.
- Deliver Powerpoint-based lectures, supplementing with real-life work experience as needed.

- Evaluate individual/group performance and make any necessary adjustments to meet student learning needs.
