The posting

We are seeking a creative and dependable instructor to join our afterschool program at PS166. You’ll lead Creative Writing on Mondays and Jr. Poets on Thursdays, then support the lead instructor in an art class on Fridays.

In Creative Writing, students will explore imagination, self-expression, and storytelling through writing prompts, games, and engaging exercises. You’ll help them build foundational writing skills while encouraging their own ideas and voices.

In Jr. Poets, students will discover rhythm, rhyme, and playful ways to express themselves. Activities may include read-alouds, haikus, shape poems, hands-on writing prompts, and opportunities to share their work in a warm, supportive setting.

Key responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

  • Plan and lead engaging, age-appropriate Creative Writing and Jr. Poets lessons.
  • Create a welcoming environment where students feel comfortable sharing their ideas and work.
  • Adapt activities for students with different writing abilities and levels of confidence.
  • Support the lead art instructor with student projects, classroom management, materials, setup, and cleanup on Fridays.
  • Take attendance and communicate with the site team about student and class needs.

This is you:

  • You enjoy helping children find their voices through writing and creative play.
  • You can make storytelling and poetry approachable for young students.
  • You’re patient, organized, reliable, and comfortable leading a classroom.
  • You’re happy to take a supporting role during Friday’s art class.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
