SalaryWe're looking for an enthusiastic, adaptable Assistant Teacher to support a mixed-age class of preschool (ages 3-6) children in a Montessori environment.
In a Montessori environment, teachers carefully prepare an environment that fosters independence and captivates a child's interest. Teachers provide personalized support to each child. They offer individual and small-group lessons, showing children how to use the materials and perform activities with them, and giving them precise language to understand their experiences.
Because of the carefully prepared environment and individualized support, children in a Montessori class have tremendous liberty to explore the environment and work on materials of their choice for as long as they want. Most importantly, the support and materials help every child develop skills, confidence, and a firm conviction that they are capable.
Assistant Teachers:
- Observe children closely to understand and best meet their needs
- Prepare a beautiful, orderly environment that fosters independence and concentration
- Provide individual and small-group lessons to support each child's development
- Form personal connections with each child and cultivate a community of collaboration and respect
We're looking for an Assistant Teacher who will bring their best in order to support every child in reaching their highest potential!
