Kind Hearted, Experienced, Tech-savvy Educational
4 months ago
**We're looking for a high-energy educational aide who loves technology to work with one of our students, in person, in Vancouver.**
(Hi, I'm Matt I'll mention more about myself and our company below, but first let me tell you about this kid)
This kid is super awesome. He's 12, entering Grade 7, and highly gifted. He's passionate about a ton of things - technology, business, family. I love working with him, because he is so earnestly enthusiastic, and he loves coming up with ideas and then doing them But he's also had a really tough go of it, including some aggressive or violent incidents in the past. His family have done a ton of work since then, and he's doing really well. He's about to start attending school a few hours a day (a gifted program he attended last year), and he has great relationships with his speech-language pathologist, and his recreational therapist.
We're looking for someone to support him up to 20 hours a week, in his home, and in the community. Bottom line: you're going to be hanging out, doing all kinds of things
- School-pickup
- Epic Minecraft and Roblox sessions
- Checking out cool museums
- Neighborhood walks
- Awesome ideas you come up with together.
This job is a great fit for someone:
- with at least 2 years experience working with kids on the spectrum
- who is trained and comfortable working with kids who have can be aggressive (again, this is not typical, and more something that has happened in the past)
- with a lot of patience to listen - this kid loves to talk
- who is creative, energetic, and comes up with new and fun ideas
You need to be available 15-25 hours a week, with a fair amount of flexibility.
This kid is one of my consulting cases, and I work with his team to help him in his school, and to help program his home time. When he and I work on nerdy stuff, we sell stuff on ebay, scheme about roblox games, and next up I'm teaching him poker.
A few details about the position:
- You're paid as a contractor, and only paid for your time with the student - there's no pay for prep or travel time.
- Most shifts will be at least 3-hours. If it's working great, longer shifts would be great.
- Timing might shift from week to week (but we'll work around your schedule)
This is a position where you’re expected to learn constantly It’s good for people who like feedback, who are eager to learn more about special education, and who are kindhearted passionate learners who will generously share what they know with their colleagues, and eagerly learn from their colleagues expertise.
Thanks :)
Matt
