Growing together - learning together! This is not just an empty phrase at Stein ! Every day we teach our young people, but we also learn from them.

We offer 2 different branches: the economics branch and the modern languages branch. 

It is rather unusual for pupils to spend their entire time at school with us. This presents teachers with major challenges every day. You always start from scratch. 

Hence the question: what should the colleagues at Stein be like?

As a principal and former boarding school teacher, I can't do anything with people who do "service by the book" at our school. They are completely out of place here at Stein !

Our teaching staff (around 25 permanent teachers of all ages) is very different from a teaching staff at a state school.

I also expect commitment outside the classroom, empathy in all cases, understanding for the problems and worries of children and young people. You should always have an open ear and time for the pupils. My door is always open, especially for young people.

Colleagues who also enjoy working in the boarding school are ideal, whether as a substitute for the supervisors, as supervisors for the study period or as inclination group supervisors. 

Back to school: Teaching in Stein is different, especially in the lower school (where the classes are really very small)! Quote from Mr. Ziegler: "It's like teaching at the kitchen table". This is actually true.

The small learning groups can be supervised particularly lovingly and intensively, but also with the necessary rigor.
