Position Overview
Concorde Education is seeking an engaging, student-centered Coding Instructor to facilitate short-format after-school enrichment courses for students across multiple grade bands. Programming may range from introductory block-based coding (ScratchJr, Scratch) to text-based programming (Python) and web development (HTML / CSS / JavaScript), depending on the assignment and student readiness.
This role emphasizes hands-on learning, creativity, and problem-solving through project-based instruction. The instructor will deliver instruction across a typical 10-week cycle, with pacing adapted to student needs and site logistics. Concorde Education provides the instructor and curriculum; instructors may adapt lessons as needed.
What You Will Teach
Students will learn foundational coding concepts and apply them to create interactive projects. Depending on the course level, learners may explore sequencing, loops, conditionals, variables, events, debugging, and basic computational thinking. Web development offerings introduce front-end concepts including page structure, styling, and interactivity, with an emphasis on building publishable or shareable student work products.
Major Topics Can Include
- Digital citizenship and responsible technology use
- Computational thinking (decomposition, pattern recognition, algorithms)
- Sequencing, events, and debugging (ScratchJr / Scratch)
- Loops, conditionals, variables, and operators (Scratch / Scratch to Python transition)
- Functions and modular thinking (Python, advanced Scratch)
- Input / output and basic data handling (Python)
- Introductory problem-solving patterns (games, simulations, automation)
- Web development fundamentals (HTML structure, CSS styling, responsive basics)
- JavaScript fundamentals (events, DOM interaction, simple interactivity)
- Project planning, iterative improvement, and peer feedback
