Early Childhood Teacher for Infant/Toddler/Twos Classes

Location:

English for Fun, Madrid, Spain

Start Date: August 20, 2016

Description, Responsibilities, & Duties

English for Fun is currently recruiting for experienced Infant/Toddler/Twos educators to teach in our Reggio Emilia inspired American Early Childhood Center. We are hiring for the upcoming academic year, with positions starting in August 2016.

Candidates should have a passion for education and a desire to put the needs of students before everything else. We have a strong team who work together to support everyone involved in the school and we work closely with families to help with their child’s development. We are looking for educators who are interested in applying research and experience in the classroom to make the education we offer the best in our field. This opportunity is unique because we are also working with children who are not native speakers and therefore require an additional level of learning support – a refreshing challenge for any teacher.

The company is expanding rapidly, and we will be able to offer opportunities for professional growth and a stable career path.

Minimum Qualifications/Requirements

It is essential to have native-speaker proficiency in North American English and hold a bachelor’s degree or higher (masters preferred) in Early Childhood Education, Child Development, or Elementary Education. Candidates must also have 3 to 5 years of experience, preferably teaching Reggio Emilia in an Early Childhood Center with 1-2 year olds.  International teaching experience is also advantageous.

Salary & Benefits

We offer full-time legal contracts (including paid vacation) and highly competitive salaries for our teachers. We also support our teachers in their professional development and provide an exceptional, modern working environment in the heart of Madrid’s business district.

Application Procedures

Interested candidates should send their resume, cover letter and two letters of recommendation to jobs@englishforfun.es.
