Teaching Social Skills - Children With Autism - On Zoom

Teach Groups of 4 Students (Aged 7-12 or 13-20)

In this role, you will be teaching a pre-set curriculum, simultaneously using Zoom and our special software.

Skills required:

• A high level of energy, a sense of fun, and the willingness to be assertive when you need to be.
• Excellent computer skills - You need to manage the zoom video interactions at the same time as running our presentation software, plus if kids have issues with the technology, to help them out.
• Superhumanly reliable - Each time you run a course with a group of children, you need to be able to make it to every event, because your kids are relying on you and they will have built a relationship with you so nobody else can fill in for you.

Work from home:

Yes, but only if you have excellent Internet - we need your Zoom to work beautifully.

Needed experience:

Experience working with children aged 7-12 OR 13-20.

Experience working with children from a variety of backgrounds who have a variety of disabilities.

Work Hours (Outside of school hours - Yay!)

Afternoons in 90-120 minute blocks each day starting sometime after school in the early afternoon.

Potentially Saturday mornings if that works for you.

Ideally, work 2-3 afternoons/week for 6-10 weekly hours in total.

Training:

We will train you in how to work with children who have high-functioning Autism.

We will pay you to do the training, but at a lower rate than your normal work. There is 14 hours of training to do online (paid, but at a lower rate) before you start.

Pay: 

For some programs $81/hour, and for others $43/hour, depending on the role you take.
