MoonEnglish is a growing academy with more than 15 years of experience in a residential area of Cáceres. Our focus is on Cambridge exam preparation and integrating language skills through project-based methods.
We are currently hiring a young learners teacher for the 2023-24 academic year. The position is full-time (22 contact hours) and the majority of teaching hours will involve working with children aged 4 to 8. There are also some adult classes, which may be General English or Exam Preparation.
We are looking for enthusiastic professionals who create fun, engaging classes that get students speaking in English. The ideal candidate would have experience teaching children and a genuine interest in working with this age group.
Training is provided at the start of the course, with professional development sessions throughout the year. There are numerous opportunities for teachers to develop their skills with Cambridge exam preparation, including YL exams.
Teachers have access to a wide variety of resources (text and reference books, multimedia material, flashcards, arts and crafts supplies, toys and games etc) as well as laptops, televisions and whiteboards in every classroom. Although we have a specific program and objectives in place, teachers are encouraged to contribute their own ideas and material. In this way, teachers have the freedom to develop lessons according to their unique teaching style and the individual needs of their students. Our staff room environment is collaborative and our teachers often look to each other for ideas and support.
