Movement Arts Teacher

Nov 23 2011 | Water's Edge Waldorf School | Wauconda, Illinois

Water's Edge Waldorf School is seeking a part-time Movement Arts Teacher beginning in January, 2012, to teach games and developmental movements specific to the Waldorf curriculum. The ideal candidate will have enthusiasm for the importance of movement in education, have teaching experience in the field, and have begun or completed a training program in Spacial Dynamics and/or Waldorf Education.
Wauconda is located in the heart of beautiful Lake County, Illinois, home to 75 inland lakes and the beautiful beaches of Lake Michigan. Rolling farmland, prairie, and 25,000 acres of forest preserve offer great hiking and biking. The cultural life and anthroposophical opportunities of both Chicago and Milwaukee are about an hour away, as is the Michael Fields Agricultural Institute, a world-renowned research and education institute for biodynamic agriculture.
Established in 1998, Water's Edge offers parent child classes, preschool, and kindergarten programs for children aged three to six, and a grade school program for children in grades one through eight. We currently serve about 90 students in preschool through grade eight, so our grades classes are smaller in size. Our campus offers lots of open play space, an organic garden, and a prairie to explore. Our curriculum includes music, a strings program, Spanish, German, handwork, woodworking, movement/games, and eurythmy. We have a talented and flexible faculty, a committed board, and an involved and supportive parent community.
The position is paid per class, and salary is based on experience. There are 8 classes per week, with the possibility of additional work in the school if desired. Compensation package includes tuition remission proportionate to percentage of full time worked. Funds are also available for training or ongoing professional development.
Interested candidates should fax, mail, or email a letter of interest, resume, three references, and a brief biography as soon as possible to Human Resources, Water's Edge Waldorf School, 150 W. Bonner Road, Wauconda, IL 60084. Fax: 847-717-7314. Email: info@watersedgewaldorf.org, subject: Human Resources.
