Wednesday, August 21, 2024
BASIS Independent Schools, a subsidiary of Spring Education Group, is a national network of PreK-12 private, secular schools that educate students to the highest international levels. Our ten campuses, located in some of the most bustling, dynamic metropolitan areas in the country, are part of the BASIS Curriculum Schools global network. We believe in setting a higher standard for students and promoting self-reliance and accountability in a culture where hard work is celebrated, and intellectual pursuits result in extraordinary outcomes.
BASIS Independent Brooklyn Lower is seeking qualified candidates for a Humanities Teacher for the upcoming school year?
What We're Looking For
Elementary Humanities/Language Arts teachers establish a solid foundation of language and social science skills and knowledge. Language Arts concepts covered include the writing process, grammar, reading comprehension, and literary and rhetorical devices. Some social science topics covered include world history, American history, beginnings of geographic awareness, and basic civics and government. These broad and varied areas of study give ELA teachers the ability to approach the material in new and creative ways, while providing students with a broad knowledge base to build upon.
BASIS Independent Elementary Subject Expert Teachers (SETs) are able to focus their teaching on a specific subject rather than preparing lessons for several subjects every day. They work collaboratively with Learning Expert Teachers (LETs) to cultivate a joyful learning culture where hard work is celebrated and where intellectual pursuits result in extraordinary student outcomes. At the elementary level, LETs help you focus on instruction while they ensure individual student understanding according to student needs. As a Subject Expert Teacher, it is primarily your responsibility to develop engaging, content-rich subject specific lesson plans and to teach creative thinking and problem solving.
Primary Job Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
Prepare subject specific lessons in Humanities and English Language Arts for elementary aged students.
Provide subject instruction on a higher level than grade standard, in an interactive learning environment and delivering exceptional results for all students.
Implement BASIS Curriculum by designing effective and creative lessons and assessments to ensure students’ education is at an internationally competitive level.
Collaborate with other BASIS Independent teachers to form a community of smart, talented and interesting people who are passionate about education and readily willing to work in a professional, academic environment.
Tutor students in content-specific knowledge (math, sciences, fine arts, engineering, history, and more) and skills to heighten the trajectory of students’ academic and career success.
Manage student behavior to foster academic achievement, personal responsibility, intellect and individuality in all students.
Essential Teacher Qualifications:
Has deep knowledge of and passion for the subject taught
Able to differentiate instruction and engage students in rigorous content
Able to create a positive classroom community and build relationships with students
Has strong verbal and written communication skills with students, colleagues, and parents
Open to feedback and continuous growth
Creative in instructional and classroom management strategies?(high warm and high firm)
Cooperative, collaborative, supportive, flexible
Has a strong work ethic and a “do whatever it takes” mindset?
Additional Qualifications
Minimum Qualifications: A bachelor's degree in the subject area. ?Coursework or experience in education is not required, nor is certification.?Candidates must have the ability to obtain a fingerprint clearance card.
Preferred Qualifications: Subject matter postgraduate work (master's or Ph.D.) is preferred. Together with a high level of educational attainment, a successful applicant will demonstrate strong communication skills in teaching ideas, texts, and concepts with precision and confidence. Critically, an applicant must possess a high GPA in their major, excellent recommendations, experience working with children- not necessarily in the classroom- and be open to new ideas in teaching.
Benefits:
BASIS Independent Schools offers a comprehensive benefits package which includes:
Competitive salary dependent on education and experience.
Career growth opportunities focused on continuous learning, mentorship, and professional advancement across our network of schools.
Retirement options through which eligible participants may receive a 50% Company match for the first 10% of employee earnings deferred.
Three PPO medical plans to choose from, as well as dental and vision insurance.
An FSA option that allows for pre-tax dollars to cover medical, dependent care, and transit.
Student tuition remission for your children to attend our schools.
