Livestream Online Drawing Instructor—Work from Home, $50+/hour

Are you passionate about drawing cartoons, anime, comics, or illustration, and do you have the communication skills to captivate audiences? Do you thrive in front of the camera and love engaging kids in the art of drawing? If you're experienced in leading live classes and have a professional-grade video setup, Kids Cartoon Academy wants you to join our team of top-tier livestream drawing instructors. We're offering $50–$70 per hour for talented, energetic educators who can deliver high-quality, engaging livestream drawing classes to thousands of students worldwide, all from the comfort of your home.

About the Role

As a KCA Drawing Instructor, you'll teach cartoon and illustration classes to enthusiastic, motivated students eager to learn. Classes range across a variety of styles and subjects, and you'll have the opportunity to inspire young artists and create a lasting impact. You'll lead classes in real-time through two-way-video, interactive Zoom classes. Whether you're helping students draw their first anime character, teaching character design principles with wacky cartoons, or ink a comic book cover, your goal is to deliver an unforgettable learning experience. We share best practices and a framework to help students succeed, but we're looking for real artists who know how to connect with kids, will embrace their own unique art style and fandoms, and make drawing feel like the coolest thing in the world. Drawing Styles We're Looking For You don't need to know all of these — just bring deep skill and passion in at least one:

• Cartooning
• Character design
• Comic art
• Anime/manga
• Creature design

Schedule & Availability We're primarily looking for instructors available during these windows (Eastern Time):

• Weekday evenings Eastern Time
• Weekends

Typically you'll start with 5–10 hours per week, with the opportunity to grow your schedule over time as you build your student roster. These are our preferred windows, but we're open to hearing from applicants with different or additional availability. If your schedule looks a little different, tell us — we may have classes that fit, for the right person.

What We're Looking For

• Charismatic, camera-ready personalities who love being in the spotlight and can energize large groups of students.
• Confidence and ease in front of the camera, tech savvy (with Zoom) with the ability to command attention and create a lively, engaging atmosphere.
• A natural performer and educator who can entertain, educate, and captivate — you thrive on interaction and love engaging both large and small virtual classes.
• A professional-quality video and audio setup that ensures your classes are broadcast with clarity and reliability.
• Experience drawing on camera or in front of an audience — YouTube, Twitch, Patreon, TikTok, teaching, or similar.

This Is NOT a Fit If You...

• Have never drawn on camera or performed in front of a live audience
• Your artwork is not professional quality
• Only draw fine art and can't draw original, unique cartoon art
• Struggle to simplify concepts for kids
• Can't make drawing feel exciting, accessible, and achievable for a beginner

Why You'll Love Working With Us

• Above-industry pay: We value your time and expertise, offering $50–$70/hour.
• Flexible schedule: Teach when it works for you.
• Global impact: Reach students from all over the world and share your passion with thousands of eager young artists. We change kids' lives through art.
• Real creative freedom: Teach your style — cartoons, anime, comics, or character design.
