Description
iCook After School is an innovative educational company that provides a really fun, hands-on after-school cooking and nutrition education program for children age K-4. The focus of the program is to enrich the lives of children by teaching them to love everything about food – cooking, eating delicious and healthful dishes, and learning about different cultures and stories behind the food.
We are looking for people who will share our passion for education, food, and, most importantly, making a difference in lives of our little chefs. This is an amazing opportunity to have a job that makes an impact on children's lives while keeping a flexible, part-time schedule with classes near you. Our educators come from different backgrounds: nutritionist, educators, stay at home parents looking for extra income, students, chefs and many more.
What you will be doing:
Lead after school cooking classes for elementary students (K-4) while getting them excited about trying fun and creative recipes, new foods and encouraging them to learn about new cuisines and cultures
Teach provided lesson plans related to basics of nutrition and healthy eating to kids in a fun and engaging way
Introduce kids to basic cutting and measuring techniques, food safety, table manners and other concepts provided in the curriculum
Purchase groceries for each class based on the recipes provided (we reimburse separately for the groceries)
What we are looking for:
Experience working with large group of kids (can be in school setting, summer camp etc.)
Enthusiastic about teaching, cooking and nutrition
Effective classroom management skills
Energetic personality and ability to keep students engaged during the class
Punctuality and reliability, with access to a reliable form of transportation
What your schedule will look like:
All our classes run in the afternoon between 2-5pm, depending on the school, and typically run for one hour.
Classes run once per day, Monday through Friday, so the maximum is 5 classes per week (one per day).
We do our best to match you with schools convenient to you, but the number of days and specific schedule you're offered depends on your start date, completion of onboarding, and current class availability in your area.
Pay: $60 per class (1 hour class time) when working with a co-instructor and $80 per class when teaching independently. This rate accounts for approximately two hours of total work per class, including preparation and clean-up.
Fall 2026 Programming:
Schedule: Programming begins early September and will run through early November. Classes are held weekly on Fridays from 3:15 - 4:15PM at St. Luke Catholic Elementary School in Stockton, California.
Requirements
Age Requirement: Candidates must be at least 18 years of age at the time of hire to meet school partnership regulations.
Physical Requirements:
The physical requirements listed below are representative of those that must be met by an employee to successfully perform the essential functions of this position, with or without reasonable accommodation.
Ability to stand and move throughout a classroom setting during program instruction.
Ability to bend, stoop, reach, and kneel as needed during program setup, instruction, and cleanup.
Ability to regularly lift, carry, and transport program materials and equipment weighing up to 50 pounds.
Ability to load and unload program supplies from a vehicle, as applicable.
Ability to travel to assigned program locations.
