Millennium Guides
We call our teachers “Guides” to indicate how we see the ideal learning relationship with students. We support the shift from “sage on the stage” to “guide by the side” and beyond. We are looking for a Guide with personal values like these:
- Soulful: Through life’s adventures you’ve developed some self-awareness and a comfort being yourself. You’ve had to face personal challenges and have come out humble and with greater clarity about your path. You’ve developed personal habits and mindfulness practices that support you in continuing to grow. You know the content we teach is important, and you know that the ways of being we teach are more important.
- Quirky: You don’t have to wear the “teacher mask.” You can be quirky and build trust by revealing who you really are. You value authenticity.
- Savvy: You know what you’re getting yourself into. You’ve worked in classroom or group settings and relish the experience of guiding adolescents. You see middle school as a time of transformation, not just intellectually, but also across social, emotional, physical, ethical, and creative intelligences.
- Creative: You are continually inventing and testing different ways to follow your purpose and challenge your students. You don’t want to do the same thing every day, and would rather keep evolving by concocting thoughtful experiments.
