Missoula Childbloom Guitar Program is seeking a part-time guitar instructor to work with small groups of children ages 5-12 and their parents. The initial commitment will be 12-14 teaching hours per week Monday through Friday between 3:00-7:30 pm with a student roster of 50+ students. This position is an opportunity to have your work be based around music, mentoring young musicians in a positive, supportive environment.
Applicants should have skill with fingerstyle/classical guitar, music reading skills, and experience working with children in an educational capacity. Applicants who are not well versed in in classical guitar technique will still be considered if they have sufficient experience in working with children, with the expectation that the applicant will develop necessary technical skills under the supervision of the employer. Childbloom teachers must be able to communicate effectively and confidently with parents and students and demonstrate knowledge of guitar technique and musical concepts. A new instructor will be required to apply for and be granted a national Childbloom teacher's license (with help by the employer), and go through teacher training in Missoula immediately after hiring. Teachers will be expected to commit to two years of teaching, and will agree not to teach guitar to students age 5-12 outside the Childbloom Program.
As an instructor at the Missoula Childbloom Guitar Program you will be part of a long established music school, doing work that directly impacts young peoples’ lives in a positive way, as well as being certified with a nationally recognized teaching program. You will earn a high hourly wage with a small weekly time commitment. Find out more about the program at www.missoulachildbloom.com.
