You’ll run phonics sessions, read-alouds, and early math exercises with manipulatives, all while maintaining clean, safe, and stimulating spaces for exploration. Classroom management meets empathy. Here, your ability to inspire confidence and curiosity matters as much as what you teach. Communication is key: you’ll engage parents through conferences, portfolio updates, and practical tips for home practice. Beyond academics, your watchful eye supports feeding routines, hygiene, and safeguarding, making every child feel seen and secure. Think of yourself as a partner to families, a guide for children, and a builder of strong early foundations. This role offers more than teaching; it’s about shaping learners’ first steps toward lifelong success.
