CERTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS
We generally seek the same qualities in assistant teachers that we seek in lead teachers. This is because oftentimes our assistant teachers become lead teachers within our school!

This is a wonderful opportunity to explore if teaching is for you, to earn a good income, and grow in skill while exploring the profession.
