As a Dance Teacher, you?ll work with three age groups throughout the day: ages 6?9, ages 10 12 and ages 12?14. You?ll be responsible for planning and delivering fun, age-appropriate dance lessons in a group class setting that engage students of varying skill levels. Each group rotates through drama, singing, and dance classes, with you welcoming them into your studio for their dedicated 50-minute dance lesson. Throughout the year, you may be given some choreography, song selections or direction to prepare students for term-end showcases or full-scale musical theatre productions. Lessons throughout the terms should include a warm-up, technique-building activities, choreography, and a cool-down. While structure is provided, you?ll have the freedom to bring your own creativity and teaching style to each session. Dance styles typically are focused on musical theatre, jazz, and creative movement for stage. However, there is certainly room to bring in other styles of dance and explore a wide range of genres. You should also be comfortable focusing on integrating skills by teaching acting through dance and creative expression and stage presence. You?ll help students gain confidence, improve coordination and musicality, and develop ensemble awareness. You?ll be part of a collaborative and supportive team, working together to create a joyful and structured performing arts experience for students.
