Opening For Montessori Teacher (Early Childhood)

Every time children are taught something, we deprive them of the joy of finding it out for themselves. In traditional schools today, teachers instruct students herded into classrooms, joylessly receiving knowledge over short blocks of time. The quality of the learning experience of students sadly becomes secondary to the convenience of adults.

At PEP, our educators, environment and time are designed to be responsive to student learning needs, not the other way around. We believe that the role of educators is to facilitate individual learning and discovery, not to serve as authoritarian gatekeepers to information. Our educators closely observe students following individual learning paths, providing 1-1 time when remediation or enrichment is needed. Our learning environment is designed for interaction between children of different ages research shows that peer learning is highly effective. We are not constrained by timetables with 40-minute slots; instead, children are free to work in extended blocks of time.
