Outdoor Preschool Teacher (Spanish-Speaking)

Attention Spanish speakers, passionate educators, and outdoor enthusiasts! Aventuras Forest School is hiring! Please see details and apply here: https://www.indeed.com/job/outdoor-preschool-teacher-22b2cf733d684cb8

We're a small educational organization that is rethinking early childhood education from the ground up (literally). Aventuras is the first language-immersion forest preschool in Southern California. Led by a Harvard-trained education researcher, our motto is simple: learn like a human. Our 100% outdoor school features an emergent curriculum situated in a gorgeous natural setting.

Aventuras serves ages 3 to 6, and is strongly informed by the forest school model. If you've ever tried to cartwheel across a meadow or catch a frog in a stream, or dreamed of creating the ideal setting for a young child to explore their inner and outer worlds, we want to hear from you!

The ideal candidate will have experience working with young children, and a love of the outdoors. Native-level fluency in Spanish is required and must be specified in your application for consideration. Candidates must also be comfortable carrying a small child or pulling a supply wagon short distances over uneven ground, and providing potty assistance to our little ones.
