We are looking for a Theater instructor to teach 4-5 classes a week in person and online. The ideal candidate would have a background in theater, theater pedagogy, improv, and be proficient with teaching virtually. Experience in special education or working with vulnerable populations a plus.
We pay $16 per hour for one hour of prep plus one hour of instruction (or $32 per class). Instructors who stay with us for a year will receive a $1 per hour pay increase.
The classes we are looking to cover are Theater Games (improv based), Book Club (reading aloud to a small group), Acting in Character (character work), Life Skills and Songwriting—there is some flexibility in subject matter. These classes are currently run online, but we are looking to move some classes and workshops in person. There may be further opportunities to assist the director with administrative tasks.
Arts Connections’ mission is to connect with people of all abilities through the arts. We offer virtual and inclusive arts and life skills classes primarily to adults with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities.
