Part-Time After School Youth Coding & Robotics Instructor
We grow kids, not just coders. This Fall 2026, join Love to Code Academy as a Part-Time Instructor and guide students through coding and robotics projects as they grow through challenge, teamwork, and real responsibility. This is a part-time role (20–25 hours per week) serving K–8 students, with after-school, evening, and occasional weekend hours. In this role, you will support engaging, structured after-school classes across multiple age groups and program types. This role is a great fit for individuals with technical experience in coding or robotics, as well as educators, paraprofessionals, and education students interested in gaining hands-on STEM education experience working with students in an after-school setting. Instructors may be placed in different environments based on strengths and academy needs, including: • K–2 Coding and Robotics • 3–5 Coding and Robotics • Advanced student environments This is not a lecture-based teaching role. At Love to Code Academy, instructors are coaches of character who create a supportive environment, guide students through challenges, reinforce positive behaviors, and maintain standards that drive real growth. Students build games, robots, and systems — but more importantly, they build character. We are an early-stage program with a strong foundation, and this role plays a direct part in executing and scaling that vision. If you are looking for meaningful work where you can lead, coach, and make a visible impact on students, this is that opportunity. Interested in starting earlier?
