Secondary English Teacher
In our country, few educational options exist for the children of Global Workers. Some families manage homeschooling or local school at younger ages, but education in the teenage years often sends families home. Living Hope Education exists to enable Global Worker families to remain in a challenging country by providing an excellent educational option for both elementary and secondary levels.
Do you want to teach where the workers are few and the need is immense? Do you want to be involved in a project that is designed specifically to serve Global Workers anywhere in the country?
Our secondary school (grades 7-12) is a Modular Study Group, an innovative and flexible educational solution which combines the best of traditional schooling, homeschooling, and online instruction. A flipped classroom, students work independently at home for three weeks per month to initially interact with new material; they then attend the campus one week per month for elaboration, enrichment, and assessment. This model allows families to remain together as they serve in their respective communities throughout the country.
For the position of secondary English teacher, we are looking for someone who loves God, students, and English. The teacher must have at least one of the following: a degree in a related field (English or education), teacher certification, or classroom experience.
The teacher will be responsible for planning and carrying out engaging and meaningful lessons, activities, and projects during the week of instruction. Furthermore, (s)he will assign, prepare, and offer assistance during the independent weeks. An American curriculum is used; it is heavy in literature and writing instruction as well as vocabulary acquisition and grammar. Public speaking and theater are incorporated into the curriculum in grades 9 & 10, respectively.
