TEFL & IELTS Instructor

The successful candidate must use a range of course books and materials, plus a variety of audio-visual aids. A strong emphasis is placed on dialogue and role-playing, but more formal exercises, language games and literature are also used.

The content of lessons varies depending on the reason why the students are learning English, e.g. school work for children and so on. The aim of each lesson is to encourage the students to communicate with each other using the structures and vocabulary they've learnt and to improve the four basic language skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing.

• Classroom management

• Preparing and setting tests, examination papers and exercises
• Marking and providing appropriate feedback on oral and written work
• Devising, writing and producing new materials, including audio and visual resources

• Attending and contributing to training sessions
• Participating in marketing events for the language school
