Bhiwandi, India The Polymath School Full time

**ASSISTANT EDUCATOR (Nursery to Grade 10)**
(A Great Opportunity to Learn & Teach Project-Based-Learning)

**About Us**

(Start with this Presentation to get a comprehensive overview of our School)

The Polymath School is Mumbai's first K-12 Project-Based-Learning (PBL) School.

In projects that typically last 3-4 months, we integrate rich content, 21st-century skills and human values in the context of a real-life problem or a challenge. The interdisciplinary nature of projects, along with the real-life context, makes learning come alive for students and educators
(Examples - Organic Farming Project, "Building a Frog Habitat").

Even though we are a school, we try to maintain a start-up culture. The reason for that is simple - if we want our students to develop life-skills like critical thinking, problem solving, creativity, etc., we, the facilitators (educators), need to live it ourselves.
