Teach at Aleph School in Peru

We are an innovative educational community made up of children, parents and teachers. Together we build meaningful learning experiences that allow us to grow as citizens and to design creative and innovative proposals that will better our quality of life and that of our community.

We are a bilingual school that is characterized by its commitment to investigation, creativity, and the design of fundamental strategies to construct knowledge. We view the school as a space for creative risk-taking and as an innnovation incubator.

The people who make up the Áleph School community are warm, curious, creative, and passionate about investigation and the accompaniment of students during the construction of their learning process. The Áleph teacher is an education researcher, interested in understanding how human beings learn, the role the environment plays in student’s developmental processes, the conditions that aid the learning experience, as well as the role that school plays withing society.

Our educational methodology is aligned with research in neuroscience, as well as with the latest studies about meaningful and effective learning.

Our goal at Áleph is to form competent human beings, who understand and strengthen their abilities everyday through constant self evaluation, effort and community engagement. We view the school space as a large workshop where children learn to solve problems using rigor, creativity, innovation and a common sense of well-being.

We use curiosity as the motor that drives us to deepen our understanding of different topics or problems we wish to solve. At Áleph, the development of a child’s innate curiosity takes place using real and relatable contexts which the child engages with during their learning process. When we help children form an emotional connection – by incorporating their interests – with the learning process, we enable the development of meaningful learning, which positively impacts on the children’s ability to confront different types of situations in creative ways.

Developing social emotional skills and critical thinking skills gives children the confidence they need to confront different situations and to solve real world problems using divergent and original thinking.
