We are looking for outreach and special needs teachers, along with substitutes for our modern, ballet, jazz, contemprorary, tap and hip-hop classes for children ages 3-18.

The  program includes a curriculum that is developed by the faculty who teach these courses. Teachers would learn the curriculum (since he/she is being hired after the curriculum has been developed), which they would supplement with their own material and exercises.
