The assistant teacher is responsible for providing support to the head teacher in assisting students both academically and socially.
BPC is committed to supporting assistant teachers who are considering or are already in credential programs; our assistant teacher program typically supports assistants for 2–4 years as they complete their credential program and/or gain the necessary skills to move into head teaching roles. The school recognizes that the scope of an assistant’s work will depend in part on the grade level, as well as particular teacher training program expectations, which vary depending on the program.

The teacher will work with students in 1st through 3rd grade, introducing them to the fundamentals of cello playing in a supportive and engaging environment. This is an in-person position, for groups of 5–8 students, on two afternoons per week from 12:00 PM to 3:00 PM.
