Summary

Teaching Assistants - Montessori Method

What could be more rewarding than helping young toddlers and preschool aged children develop their full potential? If you have a passion for teaching, nurturing and developing cognitive, emotional, social and intellectual competence for toddlers and preschoolers, this is the perfect role for you.



Virginia Montessori Academy aims to provide an authentic Montessori experience; inspiring the growth of the whole child by providing a safe, secure and loving environment. Across all three of our classrooms - toddlers 16 months to 2 years old, 2-3 years old and 3-6 years old - we take pride in allowing for individualized education that builds a love of learning and promotes independence that prepares the child for success in their adult lives. We consider the emotional, intellectual, physical, and social development of the whole child by following the philosophy of Dr. Maria Montessori.

At Virginia Montessori Academy, we believe in working hand in hand with parents and families. Parents are their children's first teachers and we are a system of support. A cooperative relationship between home and school can contribute to the success of a child. We believe the adults in our school community are role models. We are here to guide the children in independence, critical thinking, problem solving techniques, social grace and courtesy as well as respect for all.
