About this role
$20–$30/hr | Part-Time | Flexible Schedule
We run youth tennis programs for kids ages 5–14 at rec centers and schools across Fairfax County, Loudoun, Arlington, and Herndon. Tennis is one of our highest-demand programs — we need instructors who can make it accessible, fun, and high-energy for complete beginners through developing players.
You'll run your own class. We give you the curriculum — you bring the energy and execution.
What you'll do:
• Lead after-school and weekend tennis classes at local rec centers and schools
• Deliver OTA curriculum for assigned age group (we train you on it)
• Teach fundamentals — grip, footwork, rallying, scoring — in a fun, game-based format
• Manage your class independently — setup, instruction, dismissal
• Ensure every kid is safely dismissed before leaving
What we're looking for:
• Tennis background — played competitively, coached, or instructed at any level
• Experience working with kids (coaching, camps, rec — all counts)
• Ability to teach beginners without making it boring
• Reliable, punctual, professional
• Must pass background check + fingerprinting
• Reliable transportation to assigned sites
Pay & Schedule:
• $20–$25/hr to start based on experience
• Up to $30/hr for returning, experienced instructors
• 1–4 days/week depending on your availability
• Weekday afternoons and/or weekends
