Flexible Learning (evenings and weekends)

We look for subject matter experts with a minimum of a bachelor’s degree, currently working in local industry. Please email your resume and a letter describing your teaching interests.
Donabel Santos, Computing Flexible Learning instructor“What I learn when I work during the day, I get to teach at night. What I learn preparing and teaching my classes, I get to use for my work. It’s a mutually beneficial proposition.”

What’s to like?
There’s no better place to grow — there are so many opportunities. When you teach, you constantly learn. I’m also told when you teach young people, you’ll always feel young. I’ll find out if that’s true in a few years!

Aside from the rewards and fun that come with teaching, I appreciate having the summer off to spend with family.
