What are the responsibilities and job description for the Instructors, Kindergarten Through High School (Weekly Classes) position at Hexagon Academy?
About Hexagon Academy
Hexagon Academy is an enrichment academy in Manassas, Virginia, built on knowledge and character. We offer small-group classes for homeschool families in subjects that are difficult to teach at home, led by qualified instructors using hands-on materials.
The Role
We are adding instructors across all grade levels and subjects for the fall session, including kindergarten, mathematics, science, reading and writing, Spanish, art, music, cooking and coding.
Each class meets once a week. Kindergarten classes run three hours, and all other classes run 55 minutes, scheduled on weekdays between 9:00 AM and 3:00 PM. Instructors choose the number of classes they teach, so a schedule may be a single morning each week or several days. Parents remain on the premises during every class, which allows instructors to focus entirely on teaching. We provide training in our teaching approach, and all supplies are provided.

- Teach hands-on lessons that build understanding through questions and problem solving
- Guide children to reason through problems on their own, treating mistakes as part of learning
- Send each family a brief weekly update on their child's progress

Qualifications

- Clear communication with children and families
