ShareElectrician – Teacher needed for Tiny House Class This is kind of a long post. So sorry. I have a really cool opportunity for just the right person. I am a carpenter in Sebastopol. I have a carpentry school that I have been doing now for the 4th season. This year I am teaching a class called “How to Build a Tiny House” The class sold out immediately and we are 2/3rds finished with the build. The class is divided into 8 “modules” We just finished the 5th module which was “Plumbing” The next module will be “Electrical” I am the teacher for all the building but although I do do my own plumbing and some electrical, I don’t feel qualified to “teach” these classes. I found an amazing plumber who participated teaching the class with me and overseeing all the work we did. I now need an electrician to do same. Here is how the class works. The class spans 2 weeks. Classes are from 10am – 5 pm Thursday Friday Saturday and Sunday. Each week. The dates for this session will be: Thursday October 9 Friday October 10 Saturday October 11 Sunday October 12 Thursday October 16 Friday October 17 Saturday October 18 Sunday October 19 This is an extraordinary position for the right person. I envision this being either a retired “old timer” who still wants to get their hands dirty once in a while passing on their lifelong knowledge to eager adults working hard to learn all aspects of building your own tiny house. Or someone who owns their own company so they would have flexibility to set their own hours to work around these 8 class dates. This person would come to our class for only two hours in the morning, from 10 am – 12 noon, to teach. 4 new students each day. Then the last hour from 4pm-5pm “inspecting” our work. The first hour would be beginning electrical system concepts and some info on how to plan an electrical system for a small dwelling. Then the second hour would be some hands-on skill building.I will provide all supplies and tools for class. Obviously, we can’t that cover much in 2 hours. For the plumbing class we discussed the general principals of a house plumbing system then we did some hands-on skills. Then the teacher gives us a project to do in the house so we can get experience with the lessons we learned with actual installation of our electrical system in my tiny house. For example, class would cover the installation of romex and electric boxes and switches and lights. The teacher would then come back at 4pm for one hour walk through checking our work and critique. The class is mostly adults over 50. There are 32 students. 4 different students each of the 8 days. We cover the same material each day. Very easy and fun. Please let me know if you can think of ANYONE who might fit this position.
