How to quit……

I just started a new job 3 weeks ago. I’ve realised pretty quickly it isn’t a good fit for me. I’ve been looking into other opportunities. What is the best way to quit? I took over from one of two full time employees. It’s a teaching job in a language centre, so there are some responsibilities in terms of having students every day. My probation is until mid Oct, and my contract says I just need to give one week notice. I do want to give them some extra time to find someone else, and I can probably hold on for a few more weeks. But how I can give notice in a nice, respectful way? I don’t want to put them in a bad position, but my quality of life has diminished severely because of this job, and it’s not sustainable for me. I’m not in US.
