EFL Teacher - Summer school

ABOUT ENGLISH PATH: English Path is a rapidly growing, global English language school that empowers students of all ages through language learning and cultural experiences. English Path has expanded significantly since its foundation, establishing modern campuses and professional learning environments in the UK, Europe, North America, and the Middle East.

We provide a diverse range of courses, including General English, Academic and Exam preparation, and Professional Certificate programmes. Our curriculum is designed to not only encourage students to enhance their language skills but also facilitates immersion into the local culture through themes which connect the classroom to social activities that take place after classes and are a key part of our offer. We also offer additional ancillary services such as high-quality accommodation, student insurance, and transfers.

By joining English Path, you will be immersed in a talented, passionate, and dynamic group of professionals who are focused on one clear vision; to transform lives through education. A world in which every person can communicate using a common language, removing inequality and creating a level playing field. Students that learn, excel, and grow.

We are looking for someone with significant experience working in English Language schools and Summer Programmes in multilingual, young learner classrooms. As an English teacher, you are responsible for engaging students in the learning processes to ensure learner outcomes are maximised and the students have interesting, enjoyable lessons. You will follow a General English Syllabus which will also include functional language they will be able to put into practice during their fun-packed social programme and interesting project-based lessons.

You may also be responsible for occasionally helping develop materials and documents, testing students, and planning and/or leading social programme activities and CPD sessions. All aspects of planning, delivering, and assessing student work, appropriate to the course and to the type of students, ensuring that all learning outcomes are met.

Teachers are expected to be on site no later than 15 minutes before the start of their first lesson. Teachers will have regular meetings with an Academic Manager to set objectives and measure progress towards those objectives. A full induction will be provided to all new teachers, and regular training will be offered. All teachers are expected to attend monthly CPD sessions, and DELTA qualified teachers will be asked to run development or training sessions as required.

Teaching qualifications: CELTA/CertTesol, DELTA, Trinity Dip TESOL or equivalent at master’s level desired. Young learner teaching experience/CELTYL or similar desirable but not essential. Masters desirable, minimum bachelor’s degree in any subject. Demonstrable experience for similar courses in English Language schools. Excellent English language knowledge and an in-depth understanding of teaching methodology in a multi-lingual environment essential. Experience with distance learning and supporting learners both online and face to face. Highly motivated and able to work with minimum supervision.

Help provide emotional and pastoral care for all students and promote their mental and physical wellbeing at all times. Effectively manage classroom management and student behaviour (with the support of the academic management team). Make yourself aware of EPs safeguarding policy, attendance policy, safer recruitment policy and any other policies relating to welfare and safeguarding of students to ensure a clear and correct process is always followed to ensure children are safe and protected.

The EFL Teacher will also be expected to demonstrate their commitment:

• To EP’s values and regulations, including equal opportunities policy.
