About CocuSocial 

CocuSocial is an established culinary experience provider in the U.S. We bring people together through hands-on cooking, baking, and tasting experiences at partner venues across the Orange County.

The experience we're creating 

Our classes are meant to feel like an outing as much as a lesson — guests come to try something new, in a social, low-pressure setting, at venues worth the trip. Classes are beginner-friendly; most guests have never taken a cooking class before, and that's exactly the point.

The role

• Plan and lead a hands-on class start to finish
• Classes at interesting venues around the city — restaurants, hotels, cafés, event spaces
• Groups of up to 26 guests, most often evenings and weekends
• In-person only (venue within 30 minutes commute)
• Ability to lift up to 50 lbs required

What you might teach 

Handmade pasta, French pastry, dumplings, sushi, paella — or a cuisine that's your own. We build the class list around instructors' strengths, not the other way around.

Why teach with CocuSocial

• Flexible schedule — teach as often as suits you
• $200–$350 per class, plus tips
• Marketing, bookings, and guest communication handled by CocuSocial
• Support developing and refining your class format

Who we're looking for

• Culinary experience: chef, caterer, culinary instructor, culinary school grad, or accomplished self-taught cook
• Comfortable leading a group and teaching in a clear, hands-on way
• Reliable and organized
• Evening and weekend availability

Nice to have

• Prior teaching or demonstration experience
• ServSafe or Equivalent (Required)
• Access to a venue that could host classes (home kitchen, restaurant, event space)
