- The chance to grow with us across the Middle East and beyond.
- A culture that promotes personal and professional growth.

Job Requirements
What we are looking for:
This is an opportunity for a Full Time role, where we are mainly looking for the following skills/background:
- You have previous experience with teaching kids (ages 7 - 17), and are quite comfortable managing a class of kids as young as 7 years old. Previous experience in working with schools is a plus
- A focus on student engagement, enjoyment, and understanding rather than just syllabus completion.
- You have previous experience in teaching kids ages 7-17, preferably in a school setting. Having some background in Coding/Computer Science and in the Python programming language will be a strong plus. Having a strong background or being a tech graduate is not a requirement if you have strong experience with teaching, but you need to be familiar with at least the basic concepts in coding/computer science.
- You are comfortable with public speaking and presenting to crowds (maybe even enjoy it) both in Arabic and English
- You are comfortable with working in a school setting: outside our branch within the school premise, with a larger number of kids, usually within the range of 12-20 kids per class.
- Our work is mostly with international schools, so very good spoken English is must! You need to be comfortable running classes completely in English.
And you must be based in Alexandria, Egypt.
You will even be a greater fit if you:
- Have some professional experience with coding (even through freelance work or internships)
- Have a reasonable background in entrepreneurship concepts.
- Have background in any of the following: Scratch, Pictoblocks, Code.org, Python, JavaScript, MIT App Inventor, IoT, or Microcontrollers.
- Experience with coding competitions for kids.
