Program Instructor

Reach Incorporated, an award-winning out-of-school-time program in the District of Columbia, seeks enthusiastic Program Instructors to lead our After-School Tutoring Program. The Program Instructor (PI) plays a vital role in leading tutor training sessions on Mondays and Wednesdays, and supervising our teen tutors’ work with their elementary school students on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

The goal of the PI is two-fold:

• Support our innovative work preparing teens to serve as elementary school literacy tutors and community role models
• Ensure that the learning is both meaningful and fun

The PI must be an exceptional relationship-builder, able to connect deeply with participants to promote engagement in our program. On training days, the Program Instructor is a dynamic facilitator, who makes the curriculum interesting and relevant for our teen tutors. On tutoring days, the PI is an intentional coach, able to support our teens as they become effective elementary school literacy tutors.

The PI serves as the team's eyes and ears, capturing stories and data from both school partners and participants. Ongoing training and professional development is provided to ensure PIs feel supported and effective at the job. PIs report to Site Managers, full-time staff members committed to ensuring the PIs success.

In Reach’s first decade, the organization has built a strong reputation and secured national honors. As Reach begins its second decade, the team is focused on creating an exceptional experience for all employees and program participants. Only through the creation of a high-performing team can we demonstrate that teens – even those who arrive in high school with significant academic and social challenges – can become academically successful and economically mobile.
