Job description

Strive is an online math & coding school for kids (8–16). We help students start and commit to their math and coding journeys by making the subjects fun and exciting. We focus, above all else, on making the process of learning joyful.

• Our mission is to make education more joyful and meaningful. We teach coding, math and custom STEM courses to kids aged 8 to 16, and build the tools to support teachers to deliver engaging learning experiences.
• We’re a remote-first company with teachers and employees from South Africa, Singapore, India, the USA, and the Philippines.
• We’re a well-funded startup backed by YCombinator and early investors of Spotify and Facebook.

Role | Teaching kids coding or math after school

We teach coding at various international schools in Singapore, and we're now also starting to offer a math CCA for grades 4-9. We're looking for an enthusiastic teacher who can deliver these lessons — coding, math, or both, depending on the school placement.

Many kids find coding or math boring, many more are afraid, and even more think they are not "smart enough" to learn it. These kids will be left behind in an increasingly tech-driven world.

You will have the opportunity to transform kids' lives by fundamentally reframing their confidence and perception of coding or math. You'll give these kids 1–2 joyful hours a week, where they will learn not only that they are smart enough to learn but that the process itself is incredibly fun.

• Teach kids ages 8–16 — coding (Python) or math, depending on the school placement — in small group classes after school, on school premises.
• We provide you with all lesson material beforehand, which means minimal prep time.
• As a teacher, your role will be to guide the students to write the code for the full project, in a way that they can proudly say "I did this myself" or "we did this together". This will require a lot of patience, empathy, and the skill of coaching. You'll be problem solving and learning together along the way, and often our teachers learn a lot from their students.

Who you are

We're looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role.

• You are fluent in any coding language.
• You have a lot of energy, enthusiasm and patience and a passion for working with kids.
• Must be able to commit to at least 2 days of after-school in-person teaching a week (2hrs per day).
• Must be available on any 2 days of the week, Monday–Friday between 2–5pm SGT.
• Must be based in Singapore.
• Must have your own laptop to bring to class for demonstrations.

Preferred

• You know how to code in Python
• You're confident teaching math, grades 4–9
• You've taught coding and/or math before
• You've taught kids in person before
• You own an iPad/tablet

Why you should apply

Work alongside a global team of passionate educators dedicated to making a difference in kids' lives.

Earn money on a flexible schedule that allows you to maintain a healthy work-life balance.

Deepen your coding or math skills as you master concepts by teaching them to eager students.

Teaching is one of the most rewarding jobs out there — you'll experience the joy of empowering students and witnessing their smiles of accomplishment.

Logistics

• This is a part-time role that typically involves at least 4 hours of work per week
  • Any applicant who is not available on 2 weekdays (Mon–Fri) between 2–5pm SGT would not be considered
• Location: All classes will take place on school premises around Singapore, and you will be expected to arrange your own travel to and from the schools
  • We may occasionally ask you to attend in-person events on weekends
  • You will also have the option to teach online classes from home in your own time
