Lead Young Learners on a Journey of Words & Wonder

Join Us as an English Teacher

The early years of education lay the foundation for a child’s lifelong love of learning. At Tongxin Waldorf School, we believe that language is more than just reading and writing—it’s about storytelling, expression, conversation, and imagination.

We are looking for an English Teacher who is passionate about early literacy, language development, and fostering confident young communicators. This role primarily focuses on teaching English in a creative and immersive way, with the added opportunity to introduce Nature Science through outdoor, hands-on experiences.

If you believe that learning should be engaging, connected to real life, and filled with wonder, this role is for you.
