Job Description / Essential Elements:    Print   

At Maimonides we take middle school seriously. These are the years where confidence in math is either built or lost, and we are committed to making sure our students leave strong, capable, and ready for advanced coursework. Math is a focal point of our middle school program, and this role is central to that work.

We are looking for a full-time Middle School Math Teacher who knows how to balance rigor with support and can reach students across a wide range of levels.

This position is for you if you:

  • Run a highly structured, well-managed classroom where students are focused, accountable, and engaged
  • Have a proven track record of moving students forward, both those ready to accelerate and those who need remediation
  • Communicate clearly, consistently, and professionally with parents
  • Are organized, prepared, and intentional in your planning and grading
  • Take ownership of student outcomes and follow through

Absolute Requirements (please read carefully):

  • Minimum of 3 years of lead teaching experience in a full-time classroom role (applications with less experience will not be considered)
  • Must have full-time lead teaching experience in an upper elementary, middle, or high school setting (middle school strongly preferred; university teaching is not considered)
  • Demonstrated, highly effective classroom management, this must be evident in your experience and references
  • Clear evidence of student growth, including students being placed into advanced math courses after being taught by you
  • Experience successfully teaching remedial or support-level students in addition to grade-level instruction
  • Strong, consistent parent communication practices
  • Highly organized with strong follow-through

What matters to us:

Math instruction at this level carries significant weight in our program. Students, families, and colleagues rely on this role being strong from day one. As such, we are looking for a teacher who comes in ready, confident, and fully equipped to lead immediately. This position is for someone with a proven skill set.

We are a collaborative, thoughtful team who cares deeply about doing things well. We support each other, share ideas, and hold a high bar not just for our students, but for ourselves.

If your classroom reflects that balance of structure, warmth, and real academic growth, we would be excited to learn more about you.
