We are seeking Data Analytics Teaching Assistants to join the Pathstream instructional team. Teaching Assistants will support students by providing expert written and in-person guidance to grow students’ in-demand skills.
At Pathstream, we’re building a new type of online learning experience focused on teaching on-the-job skills and providing real outcomes for students. Our programs are built by educators, engineers, designers, and doers who care about democratizing access to best-in-class learning. Our curriculum is delivered by a team of instructors, teaching assistants, project evaluators, and coaches who provide high-quality student support and a personalized learning experience.
Pathstream students are diverse and range from laid off workers looking to find a career, to full-time professionals that need to upskill or re-skill to stay relevant in today’s changing job market. As a Teaching Assistant (TA), you will directly support the learning and growth of these hard working individuals as they gain new skills to support themselves and their families. Successful TAs are committed to student success, passionate about the power of learning, and are excited to make a difference for students by providing one-on-one support. They believe that learning is emotional and empathize with students, and meet them where they’re at on their learning journey. Note that Pathstream’s curriculum is asynchronous, so the Teaching Assistant role does not include required lectures, or curriculum development, however, optional in-person office hours are offered to students.
This is a flexible, contract position that you can do from anywhere in the world. Teaching Assistants can choose to commit anywhere from 10-30 hours per week. We ask that you commit to a minimum of 6 months so that we can ensure a consistent student experience (see Position Details & Logistics below).
