Expanding the Student’s Scope
In Waldorf education the primary classroom teacher holds a strong bond with the students whom they may educate for a substantial number of years. But it is really a team of teachers that mentor each student in the rich diversity of the curriculum. The specialty subjects teachers support many different aspects of the child’s development. Thus besides the main lessons, or morning blocks, with the primary teacher, students also study with a variety of specialists in rotating topics. Specialty subjects teachers are adept in their field. They bring years of experience and customized training to their topics and specifically teach the curriculum to meet and support the students developmental progress.
