Learning Train Academy is an English-Spanish bilingual preschool. We’re looking for nurturing, energetic, positive, hardworking and responsible bilingual teachers to join our community.

Inspired by both the Vygotskian theory and Montessori philosophies, Learning Train Academy is grounded in the importance of play-based learning. We build on children’s natural curiosity and support them as they learn and develop through fun, interactive activities. We provide a culturally rich experience by teaching in both English and Spanish. This early exposure to language diversity offers unique opportunities for our children to become competent and confident global citizens when they grow up and ensures they will enter kindergarten with tools already in their toolkit for being a life-long learner.
