Associate Teacher in a Montessori School

About Us Provident Montessori School is a small, community-oriented Montessori program in the Potrero Hill neighborhood of San Francisco, founded by an AMI-trained husband-and-wife team. We serve children from two to six and a half years across our Young Children's Community and Casa classrooms, nurturing independence, curiosity, concentration, and a lifelong love of learning through authentic Montessori practice.
About the Position Provident Montessori School is seeking a Montessori Certified Junior Teacher for our Casa classroom.

Our ideal candidate holds an AMI Primary Diploma (required) and a Bachelor's degree or higher, with a strong appetite to learn from an experienced guide and grow into classroom leadership. Responsibilities Give individual and small‑group lessons under supervision, with growing independence across the curriculum
Support children's learning with Montessori materials throughout the day
Record observations of children's activities and progress
Participate in parent/teacher conferences alongside the Lead Guide
Supervise outdoor play time
