Position: Quest Guide at CHOICE

What is a Quest Guide? A Quest is a three to six week series of hands-on learning challenges. It is bound by individual and team-based gamification, a compelling narrative, and ends with a high-stakes Exhibition. Quests are designed to deliver 21st-century “learn to learn” (processes and frameworks), “learn to do,” and “learn to be” skills. We are seeking a Socratic Guide who is passionate about guiding children ages 7-11  on their independent journey of life-long learning, who is committed to trusting children, who sincerely sees the genius in all children, and who likes to have fun! Guides are expected to prepare the learning environment and materials, lead discussions, inspire our heroes to explore, be curious, and take ownership of their learning.

CHOICE is a Pre K-9 independent school located in Woods Cross, Utah that provides a truly unique and revolutionary “disruptive” educational model. We emphasize Socratic guidance as opposed to traditional teaching, mixed-aged classrooms with a self-paced curriculum as opposed to grade-levels, and life-oriented quests that culminate in a public exhibition of their learning as opposed to test scores and report cards. Within the boundaries of safe guardrails, students (and their families) are empowered to be in the driver seat of their learning in an environment that is truly theirs. Moreover, our goal is to support each learner on their Hero’s Journey as they seek to find callings and change the world. Each day is an exciting experiment in motivation, passion and community. If interested, please take a look at our website: www.choice-education.org to get a better idea of what our unique and revolutionary school is like.
