Full Time
Job Description
Delhi Public School, Sadar, Gautam Buddha Nagar, is seeking a dedicated PRT Dance Teacher to join its dynamic team. The role focuses on delivering high-quality dance education to students from grades 1 to 12, blending traditional and contemporary styles within the school’s structured curriculum.
Dance Teaching Responsibilities
The primary responsibility is to design and deliver engaging dance lessons that align with the school’s academic and extracurricular goals. This includes planning weekly syllabi, incorporating age-appropriate choreography, and ensuring students develop foundational skills in rhythm, posture, and performance techniques.
In addition to classroom instruction, the teacher will mentor students in school performances, festivals, and inter-school competitions. Participation in cultural events, such as annual dance shows or regional festivals, is expected to showcase the school’s artistic strengths.
Curriculum Development and Assessment
Collaborate with the school’s dance coordinator to refine the dance curriculum, ensuring it remains dynamic and relevant. This involves selecting appropriate music, props, and themes for each session while maintaining a balance between technical training and creative exploration.
Regular assessment of student progress will be conducted through practical demonstrations, recitals, and written evaluations. Feedback will focus on improvement in technique, confidence, and artistic interpretation rather than rote memorization.
Student Engagement and Extracurricular Involvement
Beyond the classroom, the teacher will lead after-school dance clubs, workshops, and special training sessions for interested students. Encouraging participation in regional and national dance competitions is also part of the role, fostering a culture of excellence and teamwork.
The teacher will work closely with parents to communicate student achievements and areas for improvement. Regular updates on performances, awards, or skill milestones will be shared to maintain transparency and collaboration.
Classroom Management and Professional Growth
Maintaining a disciplined yet creative learning environment is essential. The teacher will implement behavior management strategies tailored to dance education, ensuring students remain focused and motivated during practice sessions.
Professional development is encouraged, and the school supports attendance at workshops, seminars, or masterclasses to enhance teaching skills. Contributing to the school’s artistic community through peer observations and sharing best practices is also valued.
Qualifications and Experience
A graduate degree in Dance or a related field is required, along with a B.Ed or D.El.Ed qualification. At least three years of teaching experience in dance education, preferably in a school setting, is mandatory.
Experience in teaching both classical (Bharatanatyam, Kathak, Odissi) and contemporary dance forms is highly beneficial. Familiarity with the CBSE or state board dance syllabus is a plus, though adaptability to the school’s curriculum is expected.
Technical and Pedagogical Skills
Strong knowledge of dance terminology, anatomy, and biomechanics is essential for effective instruction. The ability to demonstrate techniques clearly and correct posture, alignment, and movement precision is non-negotiable.
Creativity in lesson planning, with an emphasis on storytelling, improvisation, and cultural relevance, will set the teacher apart. Proficiency in using digital tools for choreography, video feedback, or online resources is an advantage.
Work Environment and Commitments
The role is full-time, with a standard school schedule including classes, rehearsals, and extracurricular activities. Availability for weekend workshops or special events may be required, depending on the school’s calendar.
The school values a collaborative approach, and the teacher will work alongside other arts faculty to integrate dance with music, theatre, and visual arts programs. Participation in staff meetings and curriculum planning sessions is expected.
Compensation and Benefits
The selected candidate will be offered a monthly salary ranging from Rs.18,000 to Rs.35,000, depending on experience and qualifications. Additional benefits may include performance bonuses, professional development allowances, and participation in school cultural initiatives.
Delhi Public School is committed to fostering a supportive and creative environment where educators can thrive. The dance teacher will be part of a team that prioritizes artistic excellence, student growth, and community engagement.
