We are looking for an enthusiastic primary school teacher (and a primary school teaching assistant) happy to mentor students to be masters of their own learning. Individuals who have experience in and a passion for learning themselves, with a mother tongue of English (or equivalent). Individuals who want to be part of a supportive team with a child-centered and highly hands-on approach to teaching and learning. Experience teaching an international curriculum and Montessori is appreciated, but not essential.
If you care for ecology and believe that care and respect for the environment need to be prioritized, if you believe teaching kindness, truthfulness, and justice to children is just as important as academics, if you are practicing a growth mindset and are able to instill the love of learning in children, please get in touch!
The successful candidates will join our enthusiastic team. Both positions are full-time teaching posts, well-supported by management.
