Folsom, United States Guidepost Montessori Full time
Job DescriptionJob DescriptionTeachers who want to change the world come to Guidepost.

Changing the world is in our DNA. Our organization was founded to do just that—a group of educators and like-minded individuals who caught a glimpse of what could be possible in education, and wanted to bring it to the world. Education today is filled with false alternatives. We disrupt them all. Our vision is a classroom where children plumb the depths of human knowledge and hold high standards for excellence —and do it all at their own self-direction. Do you believe that there is critical, life-shaping knowledge that children desperately need—but also believe that they need to be in the driver's seat when they pursue it? Then Guidepost is the place for you.

We're rooted in the Montessori tradition, which means we believe in an open work period where children choose what to work on and work at their own pace. We bring structure to that schedule with a coaching-based approach to help children plan their own goals each day, using a work journal as a personal schedule and the adults in the room as guides and accountability partners. We also recognize that when approaches like that go wrong, children don't learn. So we've invested years in extensive curriculum development to ensure rich and comprehensive curriculum across mathematics, geometry, literature, grammar, biology, chemistry, physics, art appreciation, handwork, and more. And we have an accredited teacher training program to teach that curriculum to our "guides" along with the skill of running a classroom in a way that is at once fully individualized and fully engaged and productive. That training program will earn you a diploma that is recognized world-wide.

This approach takes work to learn, so you'll need to come in with that attitude. But anything worth doing is worth working for, and the people who thrive with us are the ones who know that. It will pay off, both with a classroom that brings you pride, and a career that brings you a future, with a growing organization and all of the opportunities that offers.

This is a full-time position, 8 hour paid day, 40 hour work week, flexible to work between the hours of 7am - 6pm. We also provide immigration assistance and visa sponsorship to guides coming to us from other countries. This is a ten month contract with compensation between $50-55K/year + signing and/or relocation bonus.

We'd love to talk to you if you:

· Have a demonstrated passion for one or more subject matters, preferably in conjunction with a related B.A. or advanced degree.

· Have experience with elementary-aged children, and put in the effort and thought to get to know each child as an individual.

· Come to us ready to put in the work and the practice time to learn each of our specialized learning materials and our particular curriculum, as well as the Montessori approach to managing an open-ended work period and individualized child progress.

· Will actively earn the trust of parents and utilize them as by far the best source of information about their children.
