Employment
Teaching at Ambleside is to take part in what Charlotte Mason calls a “twice-blessed” education. The richness, the beauty, the goodness of everything taken in by the students from the great feast of learning set before them equally enriches the one who lays out the feast. Student and teacher dine together at the bountiful table.
Employment
Teachers at Ambleside are creative, thoughtful, engaged learners with broad interests and educational knowledge.
Work together, let each one labor to produce a human being at his very best, and what a difference those children will make to the world in the future. It is impossible to put limits to the power and influence of even one good man or woman, so that any one of you, by laying herself aside utterly for a single child, may bless the world in unimaginable ways.

Let us never lose sight of our aims. Work together, let each one labor to produce a human being at his very best, and what a difference those children will make to the world in the future. It is impossible to put limits to the power and influence of even one good man or woman, so that any one of you, by laying herself aside utterly for a single child, may bless the world in unimaginable ways.
