We’re assisting a boutique international preschool near **Mountbatten MRT**to hire a **Lead Chinese Language Teacher**for the **N2 age group (3-4 years old)**starting **January 2026**.

The school is housed in a purpose-built black-and-white bungalow with a private garden, and was recently recognised as one of Singapore’s top three preschools.

- Deliver Mandarin lessons for the N2 cohort (ages 3-4)
- Plan and co-develop curriculum with your English co-lead and class assistant

- Host parent-teacher meetings and curriculum townhalls (in English)
- Maintain classroom documentation (biweekly updates and journaling)
- Contribute to classroom setup and curriculum planning with the wider team

**Who We’re Looking For**:

- **ECDA-recognised L2 certification**(Chinese Language track)
- **Minimum 3 years of preschool group classroom experience**:

- Confident leading full-class Mandarin lessons independently
- Strong spoken **English**— must be able to lead parent meetings and school events
- Familiar with Reggio, Montessori, or other inquiry-based approaches
- Able to commit to a **Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM - 4:00 PM**fixed schedule

**Key Details**:

- **Start Date**: 5 January 2026
- **Work Hours**: Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM - 4:00 PM
- **Leave**: Over 55+ paid weekdays off annually (MOE-aligned school calendar)
- **Bonus**: Annual performance bonus (1.5-2 months based on performance)
- **Salary**: $3,400 - $4,000/month

**Why Join This School**:

- No shift rotation — stable, fixed work hours
- Monthly reimbursement for classroom materials
- Opportunities for professional development (e.g. Harvard online pedagogy courses)
- Collaborative teaching team with low turnover and strong leadership
- Calm, grounded work culture in a private garden setting
