What are the responsibilities and job description for the Montessori Educator Position position at Guidepost Montessori?
Company Overview
We are a growing network of 120 Montessori schools, serving children ages 0-12 in our Nido, Toddler, Children's House, and Elementary programs. With schools from Shanghai to Paris and California to New York, as well as virtual school and homeschooling support, there are countless opportunities for passionate educators to support children on their individual path to success.
Our Mission
We believe children are capable and we design an education for independence. We're on a mission to radically transform education based on this belief-for children, parents, and educators. Our mission is to create children who fully experience and joyfully achieve their own development; children who can reach their highest potential and flourish-in school and in life.
Job Description
As an Assistant Teacher (Guide) at Guidepost Montessori, you will provide personalized support to each child. You will 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. In a Montessori environment, guides carefully prepare an environment that fosters independence and captivates a child's interest. Guides observe children closely to understand and best meet their needs, prepare a beautiful, orderly environment that fosters independence and concentration, and form personal connections with each child and cultivate a community of collaboration and respect.
Requirements
The ideal candidate has experience working with children ages 0-6 and meets state requirements. You should be enthusiastic, adaptable, and able to work in a mixed-age class of Infants, Toddlers, and preschool (ages 3-6) children in a Montessori environment.
Benefits
As a member of our team, you will have access to fully sponsored Montessori diploma training and ongoing professional development through the Prepared Montessorian Institute. You will also receive a competitive pay rate, health, dental, and vision insurance, paid time off, and paid holidays. Plus, you'll get a 75% tuition discount for two children at any school in our network. And, with a network of supportive peers and mentors, you'll have ample opportunities for career growth and promotion.
