English Teacher

VUS is looking for teachers who can work weekends and some weekday evenings with a variety of ages and levels. Though we have a range of ages and levels, teachers must be interested and able to teach 6 - 16-year-olds to be considered. 

Our learners range from 4 years old, all the way up to high-level IELTS, TOEFL and corporate courses. VUS holds regular professional development workshops for teachers conducted by book authors, educational affiliates of VUS and our own academic team.

In addition to this, we have comprehensive Inductions, entrance workshops, peer observations, observations and feedback, mentoring, monthly workshops, teaching assistants for young learner classes and the largest TESOL Conference in Vietnam. 

Expat teachers will focus primarily on communicative and skills-based lessons while the Vietnamese co-teachers will focus on grammar and writing as well as marking. Expat teachers have free time during the day from Monday to Friday with no additional admin responsibilities and no public school to teach.

We have modern facilities and classrooms with AC, projectors/smart TVs and computers. Each center's teacher's room is fully equipped with computers, printers, photocopiers, teaching aids, and refreshments. 

We have expert work permit support and reimbursement as well as expert visa application support and Teacher welfare support.
