Role Overview: Teaching Assistant (TA)
This position is not a lead teaching role.

Your role centers on supporting student engagement and team dynamics, particularly during discussions, group work, and team-building activities.
This role is ideal for candidates who enjoy working with children in an interactive, project-based environment and supporting learning through presence, encouragement, and facilitation—rather than direct instruction.
Key Responsibilities:
Support lead teachers during in-person sessions
Help students (Grades 3–5) stay engaged during discussions and activities
Assist with team-building and collaborative activities
Encourage participation and positive group dynamics
Support smooth session flow and classroom organization
Assist with materials and activity setup as needed

Enjoys engaging children and supporting group interaction
