Humanities Teacher - Chengdu
BASIS International/Bilingual School Chengdu is seeking qualified candidates for Humanities First Grade Teacher for the 2022-23 school year!
BASIS International/Bilingual School Chengdu is part of the BASIS International Schools network of schools in China.
BASIS International teachers are knowledgeable, passionate, and believe in transforming education. As part of a uniquely collaborative and professional teaching community, BASIS teachers motivate students to reach their highest potential while elevating their skills through peer collaboration and a culture where learning is of the greatest importance. Our elementary classrooms are taught by two teachers—one Subject Expert Teacher (SET) and one Learning Expert Teacher (LET).
BASIS International Elementary Teachers can focus their teaching on teaching phonics, reading, and humanities. They work collaboratively with Learning Expert Teachers (LETs) to cultivate a joyful learning culture where hard work is celebrated and where intellectual pursuits result in extraordinary student outcomes. At the elementary level, let's help you focus on instruction while they ensure individual student understanding according to student needs. As an Elementary Teacher, it is primarily your responsibility to develop engaging, content-rich subject-specific lesson plans and to teach creative thinking and problem-solving.
Elementary teachers establish a solid foundation of language and social science skills and knowledge. Language Arts topics covered include the beginnings of reading and writing, reading comprehension, writing process, and much more. Some humanities topics covered include world history, American history, and the beginnings of geographic awareness. These broad and varied areas of study give elementary teachers the ability to approach the material in new and creative ways while providing students with a broad knowledge base to build upon.
Primary Job Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
- Prepare subject-specific lessons for elementary-aged students.
- Provide subject instruction on a higher level than grade standard, in an interactive learning environment, and deliver exceptional results for all students.
- Implement BASIS Curriculum by designing effective and creative lessons and assessments to ensure students’ education is at an internationally competitive level.
- Collaborate with other BASIS International teachers to form a community of smart, talented, and interesting people who are passionate about education and readily willing to work in a professional, academic environment.
- Tutor students in content-specific knowledge (math, sciences, fine arts, engineering, history, and more) and skills to heighten students’ academic and career success trajectory.
- Manage student behavior to foster academic achievement, personal responsibility, intellect, and individuality in all students.
