German Language Assistant (part-time, fixed term – 35 weeks)

Gloucester

Start date: 7 October 2024
Closing date: Noon, 2 September 2024
As per The British Council recommendation

The Crypt School is seeking to appoint a dynamic part-time German Assistant to join the teaching staff in October 2024.  The role will include up to 4 hours of teaching per week, subject to the number of students studying the language in the Sixth Form.

As a Language Assistant at Crypt your main duty will be the planning and delivery of one-to-one sessions with our sixth form language students to support their classroom learning. The themes of these sessions will follow the relevant AQA A Level course. You may also be asked to work with small groups of GCSE students.

The main goal of these sessions will be to improve the students' spoken fluency and accuracy in the target language, whilst deepening their cultural knowledge with reference to current affairs and native media where possible. You will also focus on improving students' exam technique where appropriate.

Native level proficiency in German is essential as well as a desire to work with talented young people who have a passion for languages. Knowledge of the AQA German A Level course is desirable.

We welcome applications from colleagues who enjoy working as part of a team and who seek to contribute actively to the promotion of inclusion, achievement, and enrichment activities throughout the School. Ultimately, we are seeking teachers who will enthuse pupils in this oversubscribed selective school.
