NOW ACCEPTING RESUMES for Lake, Porter, LaPorte Counties IN

About the Role


Inspire and Educate Children. We are Bricks 4 Kidz and we are seeking energetic, reliable instructors to lead hands-on STEM programs for elementary-aged students using LEGO®-based curriculum. This is not passive childcare—this role requires strong classroom management, structure, and the ability to confidently lead a group.

Instructors are responsible for delivering structured lessons, maintaining control of the classroom, and creating an engaging learning environment while ensuring students stay focused and on-task.

Key Responsibilities


  • Lead structured STEM lessons using pre-designed Bricks 4 Kidz curriculum
  • Maintain strong classroom control with groups of 10–20 students
  • Set clear expectations and enforce rules consistently
  • Keep students engaged, on-task, and respectful
  • Manage setup, cleanup, and care of materials/equipment
  • Represent the brand professionally at schools, camps, and events
  • Adapt to different school environments and student behaviors
Required Qualifications


  • Experience working with children (teaching, coaching, childcare, camps, etc.)
  • Ability to confidently manage and control a classroom
  • Strong communication and leadership skills
  • Dependable, punctual, and responsive
  • Willingness to travel locally to schools and program sites
  • Must pass background check
Preferred Qualifications


  • Education, psychology, or related field (student or graduate)
  • Prior classroom teaching or group leadership experience
  • Experience handling challenging behavior or high-energy groups
What We’re Looking For


This role is not a fit for candidates who:

  • Struggle to enforce rules or maintain authority
  • Prefer a passive or “hands-off” teaching style
  • Are inconsistent with attendance or reliability
This role is ideal for candidates who:

  • Naturally take charge in group settings
  • Are comfortable being firm, fair, and structured
  • Step up when needed and take ownership
Schedule


  • Weekday afternoons (after-school programs)
  • Occasional evenings/weekends (events & camps)
  • Flexible but must have consistent availability
Compensation


  • Competitive pay (based on experience)
  • Paid training provided
Call to Action


If you can confidently lead a classroom, maintain structure, and keep students engaged, apply today.

At Bricks4Kidz, we value our team and offer competitive pay starting at $30-$40 per class taught, depending on experience and education level.

Join our team of fun, energetic, and passionate instructors who are making a difference in the lives of children! For more information visit our Linktree site at https://linktr.ee/Bricks4Kidz_NWIndiana
