Interdisciplinary Teacher Full Time

Start Date: August 1, 2026

Masters Academy International

Masters Academy International (MAI) is New England’s only school that combines top-tier sports and academics to prepare future leaders, excelling in athletics, academics, and life. At MAI, academics aren’t placed between training sessions; they are a vital part of developing an elite performer. We’ve created a curriculum that respects the demands of our athletes without sacrificing intellectual rigor. Students are challenged through engaging coursework, grounded in inquiry, which encourages healthy disagreement and debate and emphasizes quality over quantity.

MAI’s academic program aims to strike a balance between well-being and learning for our student-athletes, helping them develop not only knowledge but also the skills necessary to succeed in a rapidly evolving world. Students are encouraged to take ownership of their education and nurture the critical and creative thinking skills necessary to understand and solve global challenges. As a result, our students graduate from MAI as critical thinkers, effective communicators, and confident learners, prepared to excel in any field.

The Opportunity

Our interdisciplinary teaching model engages students in projects that connect ideas across literature, history, philosophy, social sciences, math, science, technology, and the arts. In this role, you’ll design project-based learning experiences that invite students to grapple with authentic problems and questions that matter both to them and to the broader community. You’ll facilitate student-driven inquiry, creating structures that allow learners to pursue their own questions while building essential skills in research, analysis, and creative problem-solving. Rather than simply covering content from multiple disciplines, you’ll help students synthesize knowledge across domains, discovering how different fields inform and enrich one another when applied to complex, real-world challenges.

Your work will extend beyond the classroom as you connect students with community partners, experts, and audiences for their work. You’ll guide them in understanding how their learning translates into meaningful action whether through service projects, exhibitions, presentations, or collaborative problem-solving initiatives. Throughout each unit, you’ll scaffold the process of integration, helping students see patterns, make unexpected connections, and develop the confidence to tackle unfamiliar problems by drawing on diverse ways of knowing and doing. This is teaching as facilitation, mentorship, and intellectual partnership, supporting young people as they become not just learners, but creators, collaborators, and engaged citizens.

• Design and facilitate interdisciplinary, project-based learning experiences that connect multiple disciplines to authentic problems and real-world contexts.
• Guide student-driven inquiry, scaffolding research, collaboration, and synthesis across subject areas.
• Lead regular class sessions, small-group work, and one-on-one support to promote student growth and reflection
• Provide thoughtful and actionable feedback that helps students synthesize learning across disciplines and supports both academic and personal development.
• Collaborate with colleagues across disciplines to ensure coherence across units and grade levels, aligning with shared outcomes.

• You demonstrate courage—you face challenges directly, act with integrity, and are willing to take thoughtful risks in service of your students’ learning and growth.
