Job Summary

Details of Position

Enthusiastic, committed native level EFL teacher required for a very well-run language school with an excellent reputation, to teach students ranging from 6 years to young adults, including Cambridge exam preparation.
Start date September 16th, but must be in the town by September 11th for paid induction training.
An Andalusian town that has a much lower cost of living than the big cities and a high quality of life.
Positions are for highly-motivated, native level English teachers who hold a CELTA or equivalent and a degree, and who have a minimum of one years experience teaching young learners and teenagers in groups, as opposed to one-to-one classes. However, Grade A CELTA candidates will be considered with less previous experience/excellent references.
There are 24 teaching hours per week; 22 hours in the afternoon and 2 hours in the morning. Short timetable on Fridays of 2 hours.
Excellent contract and conditions; we appreciate that teachers not only have to be in class, but also have to prepare classes and mark homework, therefore we give an excellent full-time contract of 34 hours, only 24 of these are teaching, while the class preparation and homework marking are contemplated in the other 10 hours. We provide opportunities to develop as teachers through in-house training.
We also guarantee our teacher a maximum of 6 different levels only, which are then repeated throughout the week, so as to greatly reduce class preparation time.
Young learners and teenagers make up our student base and therefore we are extremely interested in teachers who have experience with these groups. We are looking for teachers who genuinely like working with children, believe teaching should be fun and dynamic, and have the necessary enthusiasm and energy.There will be Cambridge exam preparation classes, so experience is highly valued, although we are willing to train teachers who dont have the experience, but are willing to learn and be trained in this. There is a maximum of 11 students per class.
The school has a very good reputation and is the largest in the town. It is well-organized, professional and well-resourced with plenty of support and materials for teachers. The work environment is friendly, open and professional, in spacious air-conditioned classrooms (each teacher has their own classroom, so no running from class to class) each equipped with a computer, internet, a whiteboard and projector.
The school is located in Puente Genil, which is in the centre of Andalusia. The town has a population of 30,000 and these positions would suit teachers who prefer a lifestyle away from a big city and who would like the opportunity to experience Spanish life and culture in a town, rather than a city. The plus side of being a town, is that it is extremely cheap to live here compared to the big cities and it is a walkable town, with no need to take public transport. Puente Genil has a train and bus station and is well-situated for seeing Andalusia, being 30 minutes from Cordoba, 2 hours from Malaga, and 1.5 hours from Seville and 2 hours from Granada.
