I-8 Campus
Financial Literacy Coach — Concentrations (Part-Time) I-8 Campus | Grades 1 & 2 | 4 Days a Week
We are looking for a Financial Literacy Coach to lead our Concentration at Edopia's I-8 campus.
At Edopia, concentrations give children one sustained pursuit for an entire term; one ustad, one thing, all the way through. This is your space. Four days a week, you will sit with Grade 1 and 2 children and do one thing well: help them begin to understand how money works and what it means to make thoughtful choices with it.
Position Overview
Financial literacy at this age is not about numbers on a worksheet. It is about helping children understand the world they already live in, why people work, what money actually is, why we save, and what it means to make a choice between two things you want.
You will take ideas that adults handle every day and bring them down to a level where a six or seven year old can genuinely grasp them, not because you simplified the truth, but because you found the right way in.
What You Will Do
Introduce children to what money is, where it comes from, and how it moves through everyday life
Teach the difference between needs and wants, and help children begin to think about simple choices and trade-offs
Explore how people earn money, through work, through effort, and through simple ideas like a small business or a service
Guide children through basic saving concepts: why we save, how we save, and what it feels like to wait for something you want
Use stories, role play, games, and hands-on activities to make financial concepts feel real and relevant
Observe how children are engaging and adjust your approach based on what is landing and what is not
What We Are Looking For
A solid understanding of financial concepts and how to translate them for young children
Experience working with early primary children or a strong ability to communicate with this age group
Creativity in lesson design, someone who can turn an abstract concept into something a child can hold, play with, and remember
Patience to revisit ideas in different ways until they make sense
A genuine interest in helping children develop habits of thinking, not just knowledge of terms
What Matters Here
Children at this age are already making choices, which snack to pick, whether to spend their Eid money or keep it, what they would do if they had a hundred rupees. They are not too young for this. They just need someone who meets them where they already are and builds from there. We want someone who sees that and works with it.
How to Apply
Apply through our form and include a short note about your background, how you would introduce the concept of money to a six year old, and what a typical session in this concentration might look like.
