Main Job Description

Jungle School needs a Homeroom Teacher to teach English & History to students in grades 7, 8 & 9. 

​

A Teachers main job is to be a worthy role model for students who are beginning to idolize the grown-ups in their life. Being silly, curious, and crazy is the best way to keep students engaged and learning. It is also the best way to connect with them on a heart-to-heart level which is what children this age need most.  

​

In Middle School, our academics get more serious, but the way we teach them never does. Teaching should not look like teaching. It might look like acting, playing, and having fun... but we don't ever want to see you lecturing for more than 5 minutes or so. Students should always be moving, talking, and interacting with their immediate environment. If your classroom looks and sounds like a circus, you're on the right track.

​

After school, there are no office hours required.  Teachers often prepare lesson plans & supplies for the following week at school, while games and thematic activities mostly are prepared at home. How each teacher manages their time is up to them, as long as all the preparations are done on time. 

​

Your Daily Schedule will look something like this:
- Teaching History or Helping the Science teacher in the morning

- Teaching Language Arts (english literature) 3x each day

- Teaching Debate or assisting students with other electives after lunch
