English Teachers required for September 2019 in Andalusia Spain
Enthusiastic and committed native level EFL teachers are required for a very well-run language school with an excellent reputation, to teach students ranging from 5 years old to adults, including Cambridge exam preparation, starting 16th September 2019 in a small Andalusian town that has a very low cost of living and a high quality of life.
The contract runs from 16th September 2019 to 30th June 2020, but you must be in the town by Wednesday 11th September at the latest to start paid induction training and for us to organize your residency papers (if you are coming to live in Spain for the first time).
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.
These are full-time posts of 32 hours; there are 22 teaching hours per week all in the afternoon (no morning or weekend classes): Monday to Friday in the afternoons through to evenings, starting at 4:15pm, with a very short timetable on Fridays of usually only 2 or 3 hours.
The other 10 contracted hours will be spent on class preparation, marking and weekly teacher development sessions, teacher meetings, the occasional one-to-one meetings and carrying our administrative duties (e.g. registers, reports, etc.). We provide opportunities to develop as teachers through in-house training.
We also guarantee our teachers a maximum of 5 or 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.
Teachers may also have one adult group and there will be Cambridge exam preparation classes (KET, PET, FIRST and ADVANCED). 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, an interactive 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. 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.
