    Position Summary Information

    Job Description Summary The After-School Homework & Activity Tutor supports the academic, social, and personal development of youth participants in a safe and engaging after-school environment. This job assists the Youth Centers of Orange (YCO). YCO is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting the academic success, personal development, and well-being of youth through after-school programs, educational services, mentorship, and community engagement opportunities.

    For many Program staff, this is a first job – and we want it to be a meaningful one. Do you love working with kids? Do you know the impact you can make on a child who is struggling with friends, academics, or just needs someone to listen? Then this might be the role for you. At YCO, we don't think of this as just an after-school job. We think of it as a calling: the chance to be the adult who helps a child feel known, safe, and able to grow.

    Responsibilities Under the direction of a Site Director, the Staff leads small groups of students through program stations – educational activities, games, sports, art, dance, recreation, and more – acting as both an activity leader and a life coach for the students in their group. Working with groups of kids can feel chaotic. Great Staff bring order and clarity to that chaos – not through control, but through strong character, consistency, and genuine care. This role requires good problem-solving instincts, comfort with kids, and the responsibility to show up on time, every time, because students are counting on you.

    Essential Duties & Responsibilities:

  • Guide a small group of students through daily program stations/rotations (educational activities, games, sports, art, dance, recreation, etc.).
  • Act as a life coach to your group – modeling good character, encouraging students, and building genuine relationships.
  • Bring order, structure, and calm to group settings, redirecting behavior before it escalates.
  • Ensure student safety and maintain active supervision of your group at all times.
  • Oversee students' needs, making sure they participate in activities and are involved in programming.
  • Supervise students during meals/snacks and daily routines/cleanup tasks.
  • Follow safety and emergency procedures and guidelines.
  • Work one-on-one with students who need extra support or attention.
  • Instruct and organize student projects (arts and crafts, dramatics, sports, STEM, etc.).
  • Communicate effectively and courteously with students, families, and teammates.
  • Meet attendance and punctuality requirements – your group depends on you being there.
  • Complete the YCO Onboarding Quest and ongoing trainings.
  • Know and comply with YCO policies and procedures.
  • Support the vision and goals of YCO and The HUB OC.
  • Other duties as assigned.
  • Required Qualifications LiveScan background check is required. Reach out to Chapman Human Resources to complete this.

    Other Job Requirements:

  • Maintains professional behavior, dress and appearance at all times
  • Attends meetings and trainings as requested
  • Clears background investigation (i.e., DOJ, FBI, sex-offender registry, drug test, TB test) as applicable and in accordance with The HUB OC policies and procedures
  • Must have availability between Monday-Fridays 1-6 p.m. and Wednesdays 11:30am-6 p.m.
  • Desired Qualifications

  • Previous experience with minors in an individual or group setting preferred
  • Bilingual Spanish a plus
