BASIS Bilingual School Shenzhen is seeking qualified candidates for  Primary & Secondary School Music Teachers for the 2023 school year!

Our network has continued to grow with BASIS International Schools Park Lane Harbour and Hangzhou opened in 2018, BASIS International School Nanjing in 2019, and our first bilingual school, BASIS Bilingual School Shenzhen, in 2020. We continue expanding and growing into new cities and seeking talented educators to grow with us!

BASIS International teachers are knowledgeable, passionate, and believe in transforming education. As part of a uniquely collaborative and professional teaching community, BASIS International teachers motivate students to reach their highest potential, while also elevating their skills through peer collaboration and a culture where learning is of the greatest importance.

As a Music Subject Expert Teacher, it is primarily your responsibility to develop engaging, content-rich subject-specific lesson plans, which in turn will enable students to think both critically and creatively about the role of music in the human experience, and also as a form of self-expression.

Music teachers lay a foundation for a life-long love of, and appreciation for, music by introducing basic melodic and rhythmic concepts, instrument types and families, vocal posture and breathing, and numerous other topics and skills. Music teachers also have the unique opportunity to collaborate with other Subject Expert Teachers to bring music into history, technology, and other areas to provide further context and enhanced learning for students. Our teachers are encouraged to bring their passion into the classroom and share with students enthusiastically and innovatively to produce extraordinary outcomes.

Primary Job Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

•    Prepare subject-specific lessons in Music.
•    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 internationally competitive.
•    Collaborate with other BASIS International teachers to create interdisciplinary lessons and incorporate music as a part of other areas of knowledge.
•    Tutor students in content-specific knowledge and skills to heighten the trajectory of students’ academic and career success.
•    Manage student behavior to foster academic achievement, personal responsibility, intellect, and individuality in all students.
