Learning guide
Our team of learning guides is the heart of lila.school. We accompany the students in open learning and support them personally as mentors. Our duties also include supervision during breaks and self-study times. Once a week we meet for a teacher’s conference. We are organized as a team in an agile manner and take the decisions together that determine the further development of lila.school. In addition, each of us takes over a part of the organizational and other tasks around the school operation. It is very important for us to harmonize as a team. By this we do not mean that there are no conflicts among us, but that we are capable of solving them together. If you want to become part of our team, we will first get to know each other and then decide together if we are a good match.
In any case, we want you to have enthusiasm that you are willing to share in order to accompany others in their development. We want you to be mindful of yourself, the people around you and your environment, and of course share our fundamental orientation. Being independent and able to work in a team are important to us. A pedagogical education is not a requirement for us, but you should have a lot of experience in dealing with young people.
As a learning guide at lila.school, you can contribute as a whole being and not just fulfill a role. Here you will find the freedom todevelop and the opportunities to really make a difference. You can engage in content that goes far beyond the normal school subjects and do your part to help shape the education of the future. And you are part of our team, where we support and value each other and want to grow ourselves.
It is important for us that you really enjoy working with us, and we want you to be fully committed. To make this possible for you, the lila.school offers a very fair salary and working hours that also allow for a life outside of school.
We want you to be enthusiastic about a variety of topics as a learning guide, including those that are outside of the school curriculum. However, since we also have to fulfill the curriculum (and want to hire as few additional input lesson leaders as possible for this), it would be great if our team of learning guides covered as many of the school subjects up to the Matura exam as possible. Currently, we are still missing the subjects German, history, art, music and handcrafts.
Please feel free to contact us for more info.
Course tutor
At lila.school, everyone can offer courses. As a course tutor you are not employed by us, but work on a fee basis and can decide for yourself how you want to design and organize your courses. Of course, learning guides can also work as course tutors.
More info about the course system
We would like to see as broad and exciting a range of courses as possible as early as the start of school in the fall of 2021. The content of the courses can concern classic school subjects as well as go far beyond them. Check out the current list of course content to see what others want to offer. Contact us if you would like to offer something as well, we welcome new ideas!
