English Teacher

Al Ain English Speaking School is looking to appoint exceptional subject teachers to join our team. We welcome applications from outstanding, self-motivated and dedicated professionals. We’re looking for passion, enthusiasm and experience, and a love for out of the box teaching!

As a qualified English teacher, you will have significant experience of teaching the UK National Curriculum at Key Stage 3, 4 & 5. You must have a minimum of 2 years’ experience of teaching and experience of iGCSE is desirable. We offer English Literature & Language at both KS4 & KS5.

You will be an excellent communicator and confident with your subject knowledge and craft, and be someone who gets on well with colleagues, students and parents. You will be well organised, have a good sense of humour and will want to participate fully in the extra-curricular aspects of school life as well as the classroom. You won’t be afraid of hard work and will be relentlessly focused on giving our students opportunities for success both in and beyond the classroom. Experience of, or an interest in, developing English as an extracurricular activity would be an advantage, or you will have something unique in your tool kit that will light the fires in the imagination of our young students.
