This role requires flexibility, patience, and the ability to quickly adapt to different classroom environments and student needs. The ideal candidate will have a passion for education, strong communication skills, and the ability to maintain a positive learning environment.
As a Substitute Teacher, you will be responsible for delivering lesson plans provided by the regular teacher, ensuring that students remain engaged and productive throughout the school day.

The successful candidate will demonstrate excellent interpersonal skills, patience, and the ability to connect with students of various ages and backgrounds.

In this role, you will have the opportunity to gain valuable teaching experience, develop classroom management skills, and build relationships within the educational community. Substitute Teachers play a crucial role in maintaining continuity of instruction and ensuring that students continue to learn and grow, even in the absence of their regular teacher.
We value candidates who are punctual, reliable, and committed to providing high-quality education. You should be prepared to arrive early to review lesson plans, set up classroom materials, and familiarize yourself with school routines and procedures. Strong organizational skills and attention to detail will help you succeed in this role.
Previous experience working with children or adolescents, either in a teaching or mentoring capacity, is highly desirable.
