Da Vinci Center for Gifted Children is a unique private school in the beautiful island town of Alameda. We serve profoundly and exceptionally gifted children ages 4-14. Most kids are at least three years ahead of grade level in one or more subjects, and they tend to need social-emotional support. Some kids are 2E (may have a learning difference such as dyslexia in addition to being gifted). There are only 5 or 6 kids in every class!
We have a gorgeous 10,000 square foot facility with about 17 kids in the whole school. You would have your own large Science room consisting of two adjoining rooms with science sink, science fridge, chromebooks for kids and so much more.
We are looking for an upbeat science teacher who loves sharing their high level knowledge of science through hands on teaching and learning. We strongly prefer a PhD in the field (biology, physiology, chemistry, zoology, environmental, astrophysics or related areas). Experience working with the gifted population, or yourself identifying as gifted, is a plus. You do not have to have a teaching credential for this position. Professors/community college insructors tend to do really well at our school. We have an awesome teaching team and a casual environment (jeans/shorts/sandals totally ok). We are looking for someone who is caring, reliable, able to forge positive relationships with students and parents, and willing to teach young children at very high levels. Our school focuses on hands-on experiential learning.
This position is part time for $35 to $40 per hour depending upon experience and education. Currently Science classes are Monday through Wednesday in the mornings and additional supervision hours are also available (we have flexibility to change the schedule if those mornings don’t work for you). The position may easily grow into full time for the right candidate. We are looking for someone who is searching for a long term teaching assignment and wishes to commit to an amazing gifted community – a two year contract is available. We have a casual environment, good kids, supportive parents and an awesome, welcoming teaching team.
Background check/fingerprinting, clear TB test, immunizations and updated CPR are required (we have CPR training on site in the fall).
Please send a resume/vita and cover letter to the craigslist address letting us know why you would be a good fit for Da Vinci. Interviews will occur on a rolling basis and the position will begin within the next two weeks.
Thank you for your interest in our gifted community.
