Currently, we are seeking a part-time kindergarten teacher. The start date is November 23, 2020. Our kindergarten program runs 3 days a week on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. The class includes both JK and SK students. We are looking for someone who loves the Lord, loves children, is flexible, loves making learning fun and exciting, and is willing to learn the classical method.
To apply, please follow the process below. We look forward to hearing from you.
We are looking for teachers who have a passion for teaching and discipling the next generation. As such, experience in teaching will be an asset. We seek teachers who exemplify the life that we desire our students to live. We want teachers who follow the Lord passionately, who are active members of a church, and who have a biblically formed worldview that they can pass along to their students. We expect our teachers to have expertise in the subjects they teach, to be able to communicate that information in an engaging and interactive way, and who are able to manage a classroom effectively. Great teachers are life-long learners. We desire teachers who are continual learners themselves so that they can lead their students by example. Our prayer is that the teachers of King Alfred Academy will not only have an impact on this generation but on generations to come.
We recommend all prospective teachers read the book, Case for Classical Education, by Douglas Wilson to familiarize themselves with the vision behind classical Christian education. Amazon link here: https://www.amazon.ca/Case-Classical-Christian-Education/dp/1581343841/.
