Do you love working with kids? Do you want to make a difference? Forte Arts Center is seeking a positive, and experienced person for the role of a part-time ballet teacher. Enjoyment in teaching dance, ability to communicate effectively, and flexibility in meeting individual student needs and goals are a MUST.

 

Forte Arts Center is a bustling performing arts school that has been serving the community for over 30 years. We believe in a family-first business model where we are raising tomorrow's leaders through the performing arts while we exceed the expectations of our clients. We strive to be an innovator in dance and music education and leadership developing friendships and skills for a lifetime.

 

You will love coming to work every day with the culture we have built. Positive and engaged team members who support all roles in the company and families who are invested and committed to our values make the workday so enjoyable you will forget you are working.

This job includes teaching dance classes on a weekly basis, preparing students for performances, providing student feedback both on-the-spot and through bi-annual report cards, team members on a regular basis, and attending studio rehearsals and events.

 

Role must-haves include the ability to manage a classroom, experience teaching children and adults, organization, effective verbal and written communication, creative and flexible teaching style, and an enthusiastic and warm approach with students.

We only hire career-minded, long-term employees who have stand-out work ethics and desire to grow. This role is not for a short-term placement or for someone not looking to grow inside our company. Forte Arts Center is looking for an experienced ballet teacher to join their team for all levels of ballet and pointe. Our studio has locations in Channahon and Morris, Illinois. Our studio produces a Nutcracker each winter as well. To learn more about us go to www.forteartscenter.com.
