At ZBS, we pride our teachers on being the best out there.  While there is a core philosophy and curriculum to the school and each individual course, the curriculum is malleable enough to incorporate each teacher’s passion and expertise.  Our teaching staff come from a variety of backgrounds, professionally and in terms of acting training–some were students that rose through the studio, others have been teaching for decades and are drawn to the vision and community.  Zak’s goal is that the students are at the center of an impassioned dialogue between teachers on what “acting for the whole self” means, and how to bring the best out of every individual that walks in the door, personally, professionally, and artistically.

To apply, please look extensively through our website and social media to get an idea of what we do, and write a cover letter as well as a resume, reflecting both your teaching and artistic experience. Please take a look at our classes page and let us know which age groups and classes are most appealing to you as well.  Thank you and we look forward to reviewing your materials!  All teachers will go through a teacher training process that lasts a few months, so please be aware of that prior to submitting.  We are currently hiring for kids, teens, and adult classes.
