- Collaborate with state teachers to create project plans that align with their curriculum.

ABOUT YOU

- You have a combined 4+ years of experience in teaching and creating educational content for NCERT Math. Impeccable communication skills are non-negotiable.
- You are a quick learner: As a small team, we are often pulled into different streams. We are looking for fast learners who can always support 6-12th STEM creation whenever necessary.
- You have the ability to timebox effortlessly. As a small team, our greatest strength is the ability to pace up whenever needed by timeboxing on content. This requires us to have the shipping beats perfection mindset.
- You don t need to be managed: We lead with context, not control. We expect you to be proactive and ask clarifying questions, provide status updates, loop in your manager when things arent going your way, etc.
- You are someone with an entrepreneurial mindset, including a high tolerance for ambiguity, a penchant for experimentation, and a bias toward action. You are willing to roll up your sleeves and help the team get work done as we grow.
- You are passionate about education and have a strong desire to change the world for the better.

Degree For the first part, we want you to create two explainer videos. The topics are: Dividing polynomials by other polynomials. Decimal expansions of rational numbers
Keep these guidelines in mind.
- The target audience is a confused learner of grade 9/10 CBSE.
- Video length should not exceed 10 minutes.
- Ensure it s hitting student pain points (major confusion area, misconception, complex topic, etc.). Prioritise depth over breadth.
- Generate curiosity. Extra points if you can blow the learner s mind away.
- Feel free to use any video creation style. Get creative.
- Finally, be yourself. Have fun.
Note: We will only gauge the explanation. Not the visual/aesthetics
(File types: pdf, doc, docx, txt, rtf)
For the second part, create one Multiple Choice Question (MCQ) each to test students understanding of the following two skills: - Ability to identify correct congruence criteria to prove congruence of triangles. - Ability to apply properties of tangents drawn to a circle. So, a total of two MCQs.
Keep these guidelines in mind.
- Create a question that addresses a pain point of the student within the topic and tests conceptual understanding.
Each MCQ should also have a short, step-by-step explanation on how to arrive at the solution. In a conversational tone.
(This isnt just about providing the solution, but about guiding the learner, much like a teacher would do in a classroom, nudging the confused learners towards the right answer rather than simply handing it over. So, the first hint shouldn t reveal too much but only nudge the student in the right direction.)
Choose good distractors/incorrect options for the question.
- We will be gauging your ability to write and communicate complex topics in a manner that students can grasp without being overwhelmed.
