Kitchener, Canada InnovOak School Full time

**JK- 8 Music Program Project Coordinator (Volunteer)**

**InnovOak **School is Kitchener-Waterloo's newest private school. As an education start-up, we pride ourselves on providing a strong academic program that will give students the tools and skills they need to succeed, graduate, and be remarkable in all areas of adult life. We use our experience in elementary and secondary education to create a traditional school setting that manages and adapts nimbly to a changing future. InnovOak is a Ministry Inspected Private School for Grades JK-12 and we grant an OSSD and our own ISHGD

Frustrated with how the teaching profession has changed, going from one new idea to another with no time to implement anything? Looking to return to sound teaching practices that you know work? Looking to spend more time teaching, mentoring, and engaging with students who are eager to learn? Want to provide a more nurturing, engaging and quality program but are being held back by your current role?

**We are building in the early building stages of our full music program and will implement a high quality music program as interest and growth permits**

**What We are Looking For**

There are two components to starting our program:
**Program planning and organization**
- Looking for someone with a vision for music education on the near, mid and long term
- Position would provide advise and guidance to the principal
- Role would be focused on creating a vocal and instrumental framework that prepares all students for AVI1O and beyond
- Planning should include opportunities for student performances when possible
- Incorporating new and innovative music program ideas that will build an exceptional music experience for students
- may lead to possible part time and then full time teaching in music or other areas

**Musical Opportunities for Students**
- Developing workshops and lessons that build music skills with a group of students
- planning for lessons
- Working with students to build theory and performance skills
- sharing a joy and love of music
- ideal for someone willing to volunteer on a regular basis over a term / terms
- may lead to possible part time and then full time teaching in music or other areas

We are looking for someone wanting to become a teacher, looking for an unusual opportunity or maybe having a project that helps builds a resume in a way that can impress future employers This role will allow you to use your talents and expertise to begin to build the JK-8 music program with a goal to create excellence and success in AMU1O and beyond.

**What we ask for from our Teaching Staff**:

- Understand where students are developmentally and make the "hard" tasks as a student engaging and fun
- Understand, respect, and manage all aspects of child growth and development for students at the grade level taught (ages 4 -14 range)
- Develop perseverance, growth mindset, creativity, and a strong love of learning
- Bring passion and inspiration to learning and make it fun for students
- Create a dynamic, warm and nurturing classroom environment
- Developing sound learning opportunities that develop the whole student, ensuring that activities are focused, and that instruction that is based in sound teaching practices.
- Willing to bring real time learning into the classroom, such as connections with the tech sector, developing coop relationships, fostering partnerships, and developing external opportunities for students.
- Develop strong academic skills based upon sound course planning and engaging teaching delivery.
- Use the best ideas from the Ontario Curriculum and approach teaching concepts or skill development with passion, and explicit teaching
- Being adaptable and flexible to manage daily learning with a small group of students, attending to their personal, social, and academic development
- Providing each student with one-to-one attention through mentoring, teaching, guiding, conferencing, check ins and support to ensure individualized learning;
- Supporting the development of appropriate learning skills focused on helping your students to be passionate, motivated, and excited about learning
- Meticulously completing all teacher administrative tasks including: daily lesson planning, taking and keeping attendance, completing timely provincial report cards and any other requirements as directed by the Principal;
- Upholding high personal standards of academic and instructional integrity within day-to-day teaching, assessments, and classroom management;
- Supporting student wellbeing, taking a genuine interest in success;

**Prior Education, Skills and Experiences**:

- Program leadership or prior music teaching is a plus
- School music experience beyond vocal is a plus
- Must be able to teach in person in Kitchener Waterloo
