About Musical Chess!

Musical Chess is an imaginative early childhood program that combines the logic of chess with the creativity of music for kids ages 2½ to 7. Our mission is to nurture confident, focused, and curious learners—through hands-on play, movement, and connection. We're on the lookout for vibrant, dependable teachers who love working with kids and know how to hold a room with warmth and clarity. No chess or music expertise needed—we’ll train you and provide everything you need to shine.

● Have reliable transportation and are open to teaching at multiple locations

● Are eager to learn and follow a structured, fun curriculum

● Can pass a background check and meet Greenville County Schools’ Volunteer Level 2 status

● Value being part of a mission-driven, supportive team

What You’ll Do

● Lead engaging, music-infused chess classes using our proven curriculum

● Manage small groups with warmth and structure

● Build positive relationships with kids, families, and schools

● Represent Musical Chess with professionalism and heart

● Create a learning space that feels special and inspiring

Schedule & Hours
