Academic Drop in Facilitator (Math & Science)

Located in the heart of the Niagara Region – just minutes from one of the world’s most well-known tourism destinations – Niagara College offers more than 130 innovative programs between our campuses in Welland and Niagara-on-the-Lake. Since opening its doors in 1967, Niagara College has grown to become a leader in education and training and one of the most enterprising colleges in Canada.

Reporting to the Director, Library & Learning Commons, the Academic Drop-in Facilitator operates academic drop-ins for students in need of extra help at the Welland campus location. We seek enthusiastic and eager facilitators to support drop-in sessions for diploma and degree students who require support in their studies where math and science are requirements. Facilitators provide assistance on an individual basis to students during scheduled, open drop-in sessions and may need to work with several students at one time.

Qualifications:

• An undergraduate degree from an accredited post-secondary institution, preferably related to math and/or science.
• Excellent communication, organizational, problem-solving, and analytical skills.
• Demonstrated ability to work with a diverse student population.
• Enthusiastic and able to engage the students they are helping at the level that best suits the students.
• Evidence of commitment to student success and academic excellence.
• Preference will be given to candidates with prior tutoring, training, or teaching experience.
• As part of the Niagara College Student Services division, we value and are committed to offering: Kindness, Inclusion, Positivity, Listening, Honesty, Respect, and Compassion. If you share these values and you are interested in helping college students succeed in their studies and achieve their academic goals, we would like to meet you.

Applications must clearly state the applicant’s relevant degrees and/or diplomas along with a summary of work experience and availability for tutoring.

If selected for an interview, candidates must present proof of education (original transcripts/credentials). Note: Credentials obtained outside of Canada require an evaluation to determine the Canadian educational equivalence. This evaluation must support the educational requirements for the position as a condition of employment. For further information, visit: World Education Services.

While we thank all applicants, only those selected for an interview will be contacted.

Niagara College is strongly committed to diversity and inclusion within its community. We offer an inclusive work environment and welcome applications from all qualified individuals who feel they can further enhance campus diversity and equity efforts.
