Teaching Artist (Musician/Various Instruments))
Organization Overview The People's Music School is a 45-year old institution that has brought the transformative benefits of music to over 10,000 lives across Chicago. Our model is completely tuition-free. We serve kids ages 5-18 who otherwise would not be able to afford music education. Since music education has benefits that extend far beyond the artistic benefits, we view ourselves as an institution building future leaders. We build cognitive, academic, and social-emotional skills through an intense and rigorous curriculum. Our students learn with us for up to 12 hours per week and their families fulfill a significant volunteer time requirement. We are growing and in need of additional teaching artists. Job Summary The People's Music School is seeking experienced music instructors for its Chicagoland sites. The instructor will be responsible for small group lessons, private lessons, musicianship/theory, and general music. TPMS programs run after school during the week.
