Great Hearts Live Oak Lower School is seeking a dedicated and passionate individual to fill the role of a long-term substitute teacher for First Grade. This position is set to commence on October 1st, or earlier if possible, and is located at 7653 N Loop 1604 E, San Antonio, TX 78233. As a long-term substitute, you will serve as the lead teacher in a first-grade classroom, guiding students through their educational journey in a supportive and engaging environment. This role is full-time but temporary, providing an excellent opportunity for those looking to make a meaningful impact in the lives of young learners. At Great Hearts Academies, we are committed to delivering a high-quality, classical liberal arts education to our students. Our approach emphasizes academic rigor and excellence, and we value candidates who are not only knowledgeable but also display a servant's heart and a commitment to public education. In our K-5 classrooms, we operate with a collaborative teaching model where the Lead Teacher and Apprentice Teacher work together to ensure that each scholar receives the best education possible. This partnership allows for mentorship and growth, as Apprentice Teachers are encouraged to develop their skills and potentially transition into Lead Teacher roles at their own pace. As a First Grade Long-Term Substitute Teacher, you will be expected to facilitate a Socratic style of learning, guiding students in their quest for knowledge, truth, goodness, and beauty. This role requires a strong classroom management ability and a passion for working with young students. You will be responsible for creating a positive learning environment, implementing lesson plans, and assessing student progress while collaborating with fellow educators to foster a supportive educational community.
