The American Language Center Casablanca is a member of the American Cultural Association, a private, non-profit association with 11 language centers located in Morocco. All our classrooms have DVD players, CD players and A/Cs. Our staff room is well stocked with supplementary materials, music & DVD clips for class. Our center has a garden and a café for our students & teachers to enjoy.

We are looking for full-time teachers (18 contact hours per week or more) who are familiar with the communicative approach to language acquisition. This would include a primarily student-centered classroom with regular pair work and group work activities. We do NOT seek teachers who lecture their students about grammar and vocabulary. We are interested in teachers who know that teacher talk time should be kept to a minimum.

David Neuses, Director at: casa_dir@aca.org.ma / casa_dir @ aca.org.ma

Notes: Only candidates who meet our qualifications will be contacted for this position. I will be at the TESOL convention in Portland, Oregon 2014 for interviews or will conduct phone interviews via Skype.
