Start out your new year by teaching others something new! We are currently looking for instructors that are willing to share their hobbies and interests with the community. Instructors of all types are desired, from personal enrichment to technology and workforce skills.
Our most desired areas are in adult personal enrichment from crafting to baking and cooking to photography and graphic design. While these are the most asked for, all types of education are wanted.
Teaching community education classes is a great way to earn a little extra money while having fun. Worried that you aren’t an expert in anything? Nonsense.
There are two ways to look at it:
1. Reframe the Process. Call it “sharing” instead of “teaching.” There is less pressure when you are simply sharing what you know with others as opposed to teaching them what they don’t know. It doesn’t make what you know less valuable to students, but it certainly makes getting started easier.
2. Become an Expert by Teaching Others. When you teach someone else, you begin to understand it better yourself. You also learn better initially, because your brain is priming you to get ready to teach it to another person.
If you are ready to learn more about one of your favorite hobbies or interests and make a little money in the process, teaching a community education course is exactly where you should start.
Interested persons can connect with Emily at 218.346.4503 to present course ideas. After determining fit in the program, next steps in the hiring process will be discussed. Deadline for classes to make our Spring Brochure is January 31st. Connect with us before then to get your class on the schedule!
