Job Summary TEENS TEACHER We are looking for a Teens teacher, who can confidently teach groups, whether it be to prepare for a Cambridge certificate or to progress at their own rhythm.
WHO Job candidates must have at least a C1 English level, with proof and a qualification in teaching, with face to face experience.
They will enjoy working with teenagers, and being creative to plan motivating, interesting classes.
Patience, humour and organisation are essential requirements as no two groups behave in the same way or have the same objectives.
Either a solid knowledge of Cambridge exams from A2 to C1, or a willingness to learn and discover all the different parts of the exams and acquire strategies for skills development is necessary.
Another compulsory attribute is the ability to communicate, not only with the students, but also with colleagues, with parents, with visitors to the academy, examining boards, first aid trainers and many more people connected with the academy.
WHERE We are a medium sized academy in Segovia, Castilla y Leon, about an hour-bus-ride from Madrid (30 minutes on AVE) and its airport and connections.

It is a very safe town, with regular tourist events, ferias and concerts and has diverse neighbourhoods with housing to rent.
WHY We are recruiting because one of our teachers is relocating to another city following their partner's job appointment there.
Our standards are high and good teachers are hard to find.
For the year , we are looking to maintain the same quota of teachers, while enjoying more time and space for teacher meetings, team teaching, training sessions, more parents meetings and liaison with other academies.

The teenagers classes all have a textbook assigned to them.

All the text books are complimented with additional exercises, videos and games to stimulate and challenge.
The aim is to cover all the material without the sensation of going through page after page of the text book.
The exam classes have a skilful balancing of exam parts and content provided by the book, practice at the real exam from supplementary exam books, and sessions of techniques and motivation according to the needs of the class.
Our exam candidates have a pass rate of over 90%.
