Singapore FIRST KONNECTION PTE. LTD. Full time
Roles & Responsibilities

We're hiring passionate educators to join our Weekend Literacy Enrichment Team.
You'll be trained and certified to deliver a structured reading and writing programme to children aged 4–7.

  • Teaching is strictly in-person on weekends only — no weekday teaching involved
  • Locations: Pasir Ris, Toa Payoh, or Paya Lebar (KINEX) — assigned based on enrolment

This is a bonded, fixed-schedule role — not an ad-hoc relief assignment.

What You'll Do

  • Conduct 2-hour literacy classes (reading & writing) for children aged 4–7
  • Use storytelling, drama, and creative techniques to bring lessons to life
  • Track student progress and share feedback with parents
  • Follow structured programme materials and teaching methods
  • (Optional) Teach Primary-level English after additional certification

Training & Teaching Commitment

All shortlisted candidates will undergo HQ-led training (fully sponsored but unpaid).
You must complete the following:

2 pre-entry assessments

  • Written task + 15–20 min storytelling video demo

Training Modules

  • Literacy curriculum + educator methodology

Post-certification commitment

  • You will be assigned a fixed weekly class slot (e.g. every Saturday 9–11am)
  • You must complete 80 weekend lessons within 12 months
  • Weekly attendance is required — no opt-in flexibility
  • Early resignation before bond completion = $5,000 penalty

Class Schedule & Locations

  • Work Days: Saturday & Sunday only
  • Class Slots:

    • 9:00am – 11:00am

    • 11:30am – 1:30pm
  • Centres: Pasir Ris, Toa Payoh, or Paya Lebar (KINEX)
  • Rotations apply based on enrolment needs

Pay Structure

  • $50/hour (certified rate)
  • Each 2-hour class pays $100
  • Assignments depend on enrolment and centre schedules
  • Additional classes may be offered to those certified for Primary-level English

You Should Have

  • A Diploma in Early Childhood, Educational Studies, or Speech & Drama
  • At least 1 year of classroom teaching experience with children aged 3–7
  • Strong English and engaging storytelling delivery
  • Ability to commit to every Saturday and Sunday morning
  • Reliable, professional, and ready to complete the 80-lesson bond

Video Demo Requirement

Shortlisted candidates must submit a 15–20 min video:

  • Read aloud a picture book suitable for 4–7 year olds
  • Use storytelling techniques — voice, puppets, props, or dramatization
  • Add a simple follow-up activity (e.g. related craft or song)

Important Notes

  • This is a bonded, fixed-schedule weekend role — not casual relief work
  • Candidates seeking flexibility to opt in/out based on availability will not be suitable

How to Apply
This is a structured freelance teaching role — not casual relief work.
(Weekend availability is essential, and those looking for ad-hoc flexibility will be unsuitable.)
