About VCA
VCA – The Verb-Centred Academy of Languages provides engaging language lessons for children and adults, both in person and online.
Our Verb-Centred Method™ introduces verbs and sentence-building from the beginning, helping learners communicate confidently instead of simply memorising lists of vocabulary. Our after-school clubs give pupils an enjoyable and practical introduction to languages within a familiar school environment.
The role
We are looking for a friendly, reliable and enthusiastic Spanish tutor to deliver a weekly one-hour after-school club at a London school.
The role will initially involve one class per week. VCA will provide the lesson plans and materials, which must be delivered in accordance with our Verb-Centred Method™. There may be opportunities to take on additional school clubs or private lessons in the future, although further hours cannot be guaranteed at this stage.
Responsibilities
- Deliver the provided, age-appropriate Spanish lessons in accordance with VCA’s Verb-Centred Method™
- Create a positive and enjoyable learning environment
- Encourage pupils to speak Spanish and build confidence
- Familiarise yourself with the lesson plans and prepare the provided materials for each session
- Manage a group of children safely and effectively
- Communicate reliably with VCA regarding attendance and progress
- Follow the school’s safeguarding and behaviour policies
The ideal candidate will:
- Be fluent in Spanish
- Have experience teaching or working with children
- Be confident managing a group independently
- Be enthusiastic, patient, organised and dependable
- Be able to travel to schools within London
- Be available during after-school hours, normally between 3:00 pm and 5:00 pm
- Have a valid Enhanced DBS certificate or be willing to obtain one
- Have the right to work in the UK
- Be registered as self-employed or willing to register
A teaching qualification is desirable but not essential. We are particularly interested in someone who makes language learning lively, practical and enjoyable while following structured lesson plans.
We look forward to hearing from tutors who would like to grow with VCA as we expand our school language clubs across London.
