The English Studio is a small English school based in Umbria, the green heart of Italy. With classes of children, teens and adults of no more than 6 per class, we offer personalised courses based on the needs and expectations of our students. We are looking for an enthusiastic and experienced EFL teacher with a passion for working with children. This teaching post is made for teachers who want to have fun. There is a clear academic program to be followed, but much freedom as to how you go about it. New ideas/material to achieve end of year objectives are always appreciated. The school has a family feel and the children are extremely sweet (I'm biased!).
The majority of our students are between 7 and 12 years old, which is why having fun is our main objective. Teachers must have an excellent understanding of grammar and step-by-step instruction, but very importantly they must be able to transform work into play. We take students from the age of 4 right the way up to adult learners. Support is provided for any new teaching experiences, which includes aid in lesson planning, bouncing ideas and providing workable material.
The school itself is based in Foligno, a lively medieval town in central Italy. We also offer project based outreach work in local schools. Teachers happy to work a couple of mornings/afternoons a week with larger class sizes in state schools (bringing some fun to the subject!) will hold an advantage over other candidates.
As it is a private school, we offer a minimum of 25 hours a week from 3-8pm (Mon-Fri), with additional morning classes for adults.
QUALIFICATIONS
Teachers absolutely must be native level English speakers.
Experience is the most important factor when considering candidates for this post, alongside TEFL/TESOL qualifications and/or university degrees.
SALARY AND BENEFITS
Teachers work an average of 25-30 hours per week: 1200 -1500 EUROS per calendar month.
We offer work through the summer at our five week Summer Camp 'English in Wonderland'
The English Studio will help you obtain official documents, open a bank account and find accommodation.
