[About Our Team]
At The Pique Lab, we’re on a mission to create the best Math & Science learning experience for students aged 9 to 16 in Singapore. Our lessons are meticulously crafted based on pedagogical research, data-driven methodologies and have one overarching goal: to make learning fun, shorten learning curves and help students develop a genuine appreciation for Math & Science.
Over the past decade, we've grown from a pair of co-founders to a diverse team of over 100 team members across 10 departments. Our proprietary learning methodology and examination-centric materials have helped more than 20,000 students ace their examinations.
Our headquarters is in Singapore, with remote teams in China, India, Malaysia and the Philippines. We take pride in our open, fast-paced and flat organisational structure where every team member is valued for their skills and competencies, not just their job titles.
[Your Role]
As part of the Specialist Development Programme, you will be involved in:
- Honing Your Teaching Craft: You'll collaborate with our team to apply the best pedagogical practices for our students, continuously refining lessons together. We handle the scheduling and service-related communications, so you can focus on what matters: teaching, marking and helping your students grow through your targeted feedback.
- Sharing Prior Industry Experiences: Our students are always curious about what they see around them. In your classes (online & onsite), you can bring your prior industry experience into the classroom, enriching how students connect learning to the real world.
- Extend Your Impact Beyond the Classroom: Your teaching doesn't have to stop when the lesson ends. Share your expertise with even more students locally and internationally through articles and videos, growing your impact beyond your own classes.
[Your Growth]
Your success as a Teaching Specialist means a lot to us.
In your first few months, we'll work with you to understand your career aspirations and map out how your existing experience feeds into our curriculum.
When we are ready for the next stage together, you can look forward to exploring various self-initiated projects (not limited to curriculum) where we'll work closely with you to develop them.
