Teach graphic design to kids while supporting a mission-driven nonprofit. Arts4Schools is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit providing high-quality arts education for children and schools. In this onsite role in New Haven, CT, you will deliver meaningful, progressive, hands-on graphic design lessons that help students move from imagination to finished digital work.

This position focuses on students ages 7 to 12. Using Chromebooks and web-based graphic design tools, you will guide learners through core design fundamentals, build confidence, and help them complete projects they can be proud to present. The goal is more than teaching software skills; students develop understanding of the art and process behind graphic design.

What you’ll do

Teach graphic design fundamentals to children ages 7 to 12
Deliver structured, age-appropriate lessons that support skill growth across the program
Instruct students on creating designs using Chromebook-compatible programs and applications
Introduce and reinforce core concepts including color, typography, layout, composition, branding, digital illustration, and visual communication
Lead hands-on projects such as flyers, posters, logos, digital artwork, and other creative designs
Encourage creativity and individual artistic expression
Maintain an engaging, positive, and organized classroom environment
Support students in finishing complete projects ready for presentation

What you bring

Experience in graphic design, digital art, visual communications, or a related field
Comfort working with Chromebooks and web-based graphic design programs
Experience teaching or working with children, preferably ages 7 to 12
Ability to explain graphic design concepts in a way children can understand
Traits that support a strong learning environment: patience, energy, creativity, dependability, and professionalism
Ability to develop more extensive lessons rather than relying on independent computer activities
Classroom management skills that keep students excited about learning

Tools you’ll use

Chromebooks
Web-based graphic design programs
Canva, Adobe Express
Google tools

Compensation: USD 25 to 30 per hour.
