We seek a teacher with the ability to help students come to know the English Language not as an academic study, but as a window into understanding ourselves and our world. We seek to cultivate classrooms in which students learn not only to answer questions, but to question answers, and we need teachers who want to work alongside students toward the shared goal of ever-deeper learning.
As a small school teacher in the English department teach across a range of grades. Candidates should be comfortable with a schedule including multiple courses across multiple grade levels. The ability to offer TOK may also be an advantage.
