🖊️ Bring Creativity Into 3D
We're looking for an enthusiastic 3D Pen Art Instructor to introduce young learners to hands-on 3D design through creativity, experimentation, and fun.
Students will use 3D pens to transform ideas into drawings, shapes, structures, models, and creative projects they can actually hold. You'll introduce basic techniques while encouraging students to experiment, solve problems, and develop their own designs.
This isn't about making perfect models. It's about helping students discover that they can turn an idea in their imagination into something real.
You don't need to be a professional artist, designer, engineer, or classroom teacher. If you're familiar with 3D pens, enjoy hands-on creative projects, or have experience with making and building, you may be a great fit.
Curriculum guidance and instructional materials are provided, giving you a clear structure while allowing you to bring your own creativity and personality to each class.

- Create a positive, inclusive, and supportive creative environment
- Provide constructive feedback and celebrate student progress
- Promote safe and responsible use of 3D pens and materials
- Maintain an organized and welcoming classroom environment
- Communicate professionally with program coordinators and school staff
- Arrive prepared, dependable, and ready to create
