Employment Opportunities

We are currently seeking Certified Montessori Teachers for the ages: 

3-6 year olds – Pre-Primary

6-9 year olds – Lower Elementary

9-12 year olds – Upper Elementary

Teaching in a Montessori school is a wonderful opportunity to promote authentic evaluation methods as academic skills are developed, while investigating the fascinating world around us. Providing an alternative to traditional education, Montessori classrooms are recognized around the world as a dynamic medium, in which the teacher may grow as a contributing member, fostering the potential of young minds, contributing to families and society.

OUR TEACHERS KNOW THEY MAKE A DIFFERENCE

Our teachers are helping to develop autonomous, competent, caring, responsible individuals, not merely children with the right answers.

Our children learn by touching, seeing, smelling, tasting, and exploring. They're not just listeners.

If you'd like to take an active part in a child's wonder years, helping them learn to reason, to cooperate, to care - you belong with us. Teachers in Montessori schools create learning environments with children. Montessori classrooms are active places of learning for children and for adults too.

TEACHER QUALIFICATIONS

A Montessori Lead Teacher has State mandated teaching credentials, plus Montessori credentials. AMS issues Montessori credentials to candidates holding a Bachelor of Arts degree. Associate certificates, for some levels, are issued to candidates holding a high school diploma.  AMS certification involves both academic work (courses at an AMS teacher education center) and an internship at an AMS affiliated school. After successfully completing the academic phase and a year of internship, you can become a lead teacher. A high school diploma qualifies you for an Assistant Teacher position.

For additional information, or to learn about current opportunities, please forward your resume by email to us at contactus@turtlerivermontessori.com or mail us at 100 Intracoastal Pointe, Jupiter, FL 33477.
