Exciting new high school teaching opportunity in China: Social Studies/English

Are you interested in teaching abroad but not sure how to start the process! Well you're in luck because KnowledgeLink (KL) teaching positions are for motivated and experienced K-12 educators looking to join a growing network of schools, administrators, educators and communities dedicated to growing and shaping international education.  Through our partnerships with reputable US and overseas institutions and through our independently operated KL schools, the KL network provides opportunities for a diverse range of teachers to deliver US-based coursework in a college-preparatory English-medium environment. Teachers are guided by a local and regional administrative team and enjoy professional development opportunities both within the school and in the greater KL network of schools. In addition to the supportive environment and professional development opportunities, KL also offers one of the best benefits packages for teachers working in China, with health insurance, paid life insurance, 401(K) and airfare.

The Social Studies/English position is offered within the KL school network, which is co-operated by an accredited independent US school, KL, and an overseas school partner. Academics of the program are administered by the Head of the US school, who works directly with the Academic Dean or Principal located at the branch campus to ensure the quality of education. Teachers are provided a US curriculum as a guide and framework for the academic year, and design daily lesson plans and manage the classroom as they would in a typical US classroom. Students take their coursework in English and classes are led by international teachers.

  • Evaluate students’ academic and social growth, record appropriate records and prepare progress reports
