CALLING ALL GAMERS!

We're currently recruiting a mentor to run some of our online clubs that you will run remotely between our core hours (3.30 pm until 7 pm, Monday to Friday - extended and weekend hours available).

Are you passionate about gaming and tech?  Do you want to help introduce children to the diverse, exciting world of coding?

Our mission is to introduce children (and grown-ups!!) to the diverse world of coding by running exciting, online clubs with individually tailored, challenges and games.

As a club's mentor, you'll use the tools we give you, as well as your infectious enthusiasm, to inspire young people to develop their love of coding and technology.  You'll use Scratch, which is like putting code together like lego blocks, you don't need to be a pro coder at all, but you should find it interesting and be willing to learn this simple interface.

We're currently recruiting mentors for our Game Dev Club mentoring teams!

Successful candidates will also be offered additional hours at new online clubs.

• Confident around children.
• Enjoy games and have some idea of what makes games fun, be it boss fights, high scores or new heroes
• Available during our core hours of Monday to Friday afternoons, between 3.30 pm and 7 pm, during term time (there are also other opportunities - outside of these core hours).
• A creative personality, and can come up with original ideas for our new mini-projects and activities.
