Asombro's Science Educators work with other staff members, professional scientists, teachers, and volunteers to deliver Asombro’s award-winning, inquiry-based science education programs (primarily classroom and schoolyard lessons and some field trips) to the diverse student population of the border region in southern New Mexico. The Science Educator must be excited to share the wonders of science and the desert with K-12 students through fun, hands-on, unique, standards-aligned lessons.

Summary

The Science Educator will teach Asombro’s existing lessons and will have opportunities to collaboratively develop new lessons when funding and time allow. Must be creative, adaptable, and willing to work nontraditional hours on occasion. This position requires excellent communication skills, willingness to be a team player, and excitement that no workday will ever be the same. We’re looking for someone excited to be greeted by students’ cheers when walking into a classroom and proud to leave schools with rave reviews from teachers.
