Summer School Marketing Teacher, Oxford

Academy Royale International (ARI) runs award-winning academic summer schools for students aged 10 to 18. Since 2004, more than 50,000 students from over 175 nations have studied with us, living and learning on campus at colleges of the University of Oxford and the University of Cambridge, and at Marlborough College. Our students go deeper into subjects they love, from medicine, law and engineering to artificial intelligence, business and English language, in discussion-led classes with expert tutors.

The role involves teaching marketing to international students in Oxford over a 2-week session, each class running as 10 lessons of 90 minutes. The courses include:

• Marketing: From Ideas to Viral Campaigns (12 to 15) - shows students why content spreads, how to understand an audience and how to plan a campaign.
• Modern Marketing, Advertising & Brand Strategy (16 to 18) - focuses on strategy and evidence: consumer psychology, how brands grow, media planning and measuring effectiveness.

Both courses finish with a team pitch to a simulated client brief. All content is mock-up only, with no live posting or real clients.

What you will do:

• Plan your own lessons from the course brief and scheme of work.
• Deliver student-centred lessons, seminars, workshops and practical activities to small classes of students from many countries.
