About The Position

At The Learning Experience, you'll have the opportunity to create a positive and engaging learning environment for children, where "happy happens here" is not just a motto but a way of life. If you are a caring and creative individual passionate about working with young children, we encourage you to apply for this exciting Lead Teacher opportunity. We make early education joyful, engaging and fun so children are happy to learn, play and grow. Our curriculum focuses on the six ages and stages of early childhood development and engages children in hands-on learning activities that encourage them to explore and solve problems at their own rate of development. This forms a foundation for kids to Learn, Play and Grow under the care of our nurturing teachers and staff. At TLE®, we’ve created a full cast of characters that become our little learners’ educators, partners and friends through their preschool education journey. Each character has a unique personality and area of interest and brings learning to life by allowing children to explore the world through fun and imagination.
