## Description (the employer's text)

Manhattan Youth is looking for several part-time After-school Teachers/Activities Specialists to join our dedicated team for the 2026-2027 school year. We are seeking dynamic and energetic individuals to lead our STEM and general science enrichment activities across a range of topics, including coding, video game design, lego robotics, engineering activities, science olympiad, math team, and elementary school science.

After-school teachers are expected to guide students in their social, emotional, and academic development across a range of areas including sports, arts, academic enrichment, and leadership. We are looking for creative, energetic, curious, and enthusiastic teachers with a commitment to positive behavioral approaches and teamwork.

Qualified applicants are proactive, caring and results-oriented teachers devoted to evidence-based practices that promote student achievement and well-being. The ability to maintain a positive, caring, and fun attitude; to learn and grow from mistakes; and to set an example as a continuous, open-minded learner is critical. After-school teachers will exhibit creativity, innovation and passion in teaching and are expected to help create an environment that encourages in children creative thinking, verbal communication, independent exploration, self-confidence, self-awareness, and a problem-solving approach to conflict.

We are looking to fill multiple roles in order to return our after-school programs to in-person learning. These are part-time, hourly positions available during the school year from September through June, following the NYC DOE schedule. After-school programs operate Monday – Friday between 2:00 - 6:00pm and clubs are 1.25 to 2.5 hours long. Individual schedules will vary by school.
