Recently retired from teaching or taking a break from the classroom and missing the joy of working with kids? Join Discovery Museum’s renowned team of instructors and bring Discovery Museum’s Traveling Science Workshops (TSW) to school classrooms as we expand operations both locally and to new regions!

Regionally-based instructors travel to schools throughout Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island visiting with up to five classrooms of 25 students a day, two to five days each week for 3 to 8 hours each day.

They will be strong communicators who are highly organized and able to juggle multiple demands at one time. Instructors must be flexible and responsive to the needs of administrators, teachers, parent volunteers, and students. Background working with diverse constituencies and an ability to speak multiple languages strongly valued.
