Kannada Teacher

About the job:Openhouse is building a new-age learning ecosystem for children, bringing high-quality learning experiences across academics, sports, and extracurriculars closer to where children live. Backed by leading investors including Accel, Matrix Partners and GSV, Openhouse has grown to 12 learning centres across Bangalore, reaching 10,000+ children through our centres and programs. We are now taking this experience beyond our centres and into the communities where families live.

Over the last three months, we have already gone live in 12+ apartments, bringing Openhouse's learning experiences directly into residential communities. This is just the beginning. Our ambition is to build a significant At Apartment and At Home presence across Bangalore, making high-quality learning accessible without children having to travel across the city.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Deliver 1:1 Kannada teaching sessions in children's homes through the At Home programme for children aged 5-12.

2. Assess each child's current Kannada language level and adapt teaching based on their individual needs, including children from homes where Kannada is not the first language.

3. Make Kannada engaging and accessible through stories, songs, conversation, reading, and writing rather than relying primarily on alphabet drills.

4. Share observations and feedback from teaching sessions with the curriculum team to help develop and refine the in-house Kannada curriculum.

5. Provide practical feedback on what works with each child, appropriate learning sequences, and areas where children face difficulties.

6. Continuously improve teaching approaches by applying learnings and observations from classroom sessions.

The opportunity:

Teaching that is actually one-on-one. No class of forty, no syllabus to rush through. One child at a time, taught at the pace that child needs. You will be among the first Kannada teachers in our At Home programme, and the person whose input our curriculum team uses to build the Kannada course.
