Do you love chess? Do you enjoy working with kids?

Chess Wizards is seeking enthusiastic, reliable instructors to join our after-school enrichment program! If you can make learning fun, create a positive classroom environment, and share the magic of chess with elementary students, this is the perfect side-hustle. Apply today and get paid to teach chess!

Why Join Us?

Competitive Pay: $55–$75 per class (Typical class time is approximately one hour and thirty minutes which includes pre-class setup, instructional time, and post-class responsibilities)
Flexible Hours: Teach a minimum of 1 class up to a maximum of 5 classes per week. The specific number is based on the availability of classes at local schools in your area. Classes are scheduled on weekday afternoons, with start times typically falling between 2:00 PM and 5:00 PM at various local schools
Travel Compensation: Mileage reimbursement provided for trips over 15 miles one way (30 miles roundtrip), from your home or work location. Work locations are assigned by the manager based on available schools and classes in your area.

What You'll Do

Lead fun, interactive chess classes for 10–15 energetic elementary students. Instructors should be comfortable guiding activities, keeping students engaged, and redirecting behavior when needed
Use our structured curriculum to teach chess fundamentals and promote good sportsmanship
Manage a lively classroom with confidence and positivity
Encourage problem-solving, creativity, and critical thinking
Follow school safety protocols, including supervision during arrival, dismissal, and in-class activities.
Travel to various local school sites for each session
Arrive on time, prepared, and ready to engage students

What We're Looking For

Required

Experience working with groups of children (teaching, tutoring, coaching, camp counseling, or similar)
Comfort leading a class independently and creating interactive, friendly, and fun sessions. We seek upbeat, engaging instructors.
