AI Instructor – AI for teachers (Remote, Sub-Saharan Africa)

What the work is for

YPAI Learn is a set of live classes on using AI in everyday work. Your classes take teachers from a curriculum goal to one lesson with tasks at three levels, and from a pile of made-up student essays to feedback in their own voice, and teach them to check facts, level and fairness.

The work

• Teach the live class “Plan one lesson at three levels of difficulty with AI”, 90 minutes, from the class kit.
• Teach the live class “Draft feedback on student essays with AI and keep the judgment yours”, 90 minutes, from the class kit.
• Show live how to turn a curriculum goal into a lesson plan with tasks at three levels, then check facts, reading level and fit with the class.
• Walk learners through feedback on made-up student essays: set the criteria, let AI draft comments, then edit them so they match the work and the teacher’s voice.
• Help teachers who get stuck on what student information may go into an AI tool, and on how to talk with students about honest use of AI.

What to expect

• The classes are live, online and in English, for teachers at schools around the world, and the application asks whether you can teach in other languages too.
• Every class comes with a kit: a minute-by-minute plan, slides, speaker notes, a demo built on an invented class and lesson, and a backup recording of the demo.
• You teach remotely on your own computer, with a stable connection, a camera, a microphone and an AI assistant to plan the demo lesson in.
• You pass the instructor test for each class before teaching it.
• Before a teaching assignment starts, you sign an instructor agreement. It covers pay, confidentiality and how class material may be used.
• Each invitation states the class times and the price learners pay, and you see both before you accept.
• Already have a course on AI for teachers, or want to make one? You can sell your own recorded course on YPAI Learn too. Bring a course you've built, or build one with our kit. It's the same application.

What you bring

• A lesson, worksheet set or feedback routine you made with AI for a real class, that you can show and explain.
• Experience leading staff training, mentoring new teachers or presenting at teacher conferences.
• Patience with teachers who are tired, short on time and unsure whether AI belongs in their classroom.

You need

• Hands-on use of AI in your teaching, for planning, materials, feedback or messages to families.
• Experience as a classroom teacher, current or former, in primary, secondary or vocational education.
• Fluent spoken English, the language the classes are taught in.
• 18 years or older.

Good to know

• Schools and districts may need to approve outside work; if your contract says so, get approval before accepting.
• How often you teach depends on teacher demand for the classes, and the invitation tells you the time it will take.
• Applying is free, and you are not asked to buy or take any YPAI Learn course.
