An LVH Educator is a facilitator. A facilitator who draws forth the potential that already exists in a child, waiting to be recognised and polished; who teaches children to ‘think’, to stimulate young minds into higher order thinking skills; and who is trained to enable children to learn to value strategic, ethical and moral reasoning, perseverance and creativity. An LVH Educator is knowledgeable, articulate and courteous, proficient in the discipline he or she is teaching and always ready to learn and become better – to hone academic and emotional intelligence as well as stay abreast of worldwide trends in education. He or she internalises the core values of the school and reinforces them in class, while teaching as well as in other interactions with children, to whom the Educator reaches out academically and individually. An LVH Educator is open to pushing boundaries of comfort in order to learn and welcomes healthy, honest feedback as an opportunity to smooth wrinkles. The LVH Educator would like to be perfect, but is human enough to know perfection is not always possible and is more than willing to learn from mistakes to become a better facilitator.
