Storytellers/ Actors/ Tutors – Part Time, the Wasatch Front

Story Time Chess is the only company in the world that teaches children as young as 3 years old how to play chess completely through fun and silly stories.

No chess experience necessary.

We currently have over 100 teachers/ tutors teaching more than 15,000 children a week in New York and Los Angeles, and now we’re expanding into the Wasatch Front!
