◆ Teachers
While we support teachers with an established curriculum and lesson plans, successful teachers grow and expand on these foundations by providing their own unique and original games and lesson ideas. Our approach allows for ample creative freedom to personalize your teaching style and inject passion and enthusiasm into your class.
Working shifts are nine hours (including one-hour lunch break). Shifts generally fall between the hours of 9:00 to 20:00 from Monday to Friday (some weekend work may be required). A typical shift is from 11:00 to 20:00.
