• Middle / Upper School Spanish and French Teacher

  Competitive benefits package

  Commensurate with education and experience
  
  

  Type:

  Full Time – Faculty

   

  Summary:

  ESA is seeking a dynamic and engaging World Language teacher to teach Middle and Upper School Spanish and French. The World Languages Department at ESA is structured around the intensive study of French or Spanish. Instruction within the department includes not only the usual skills of reading, writing, and listening, but introduces an entirely new way of speaking. Proper use of intonation, appropriate facial expressions, and gestures inherent to native speakers are emphasized along with the obvious use of new sets of vocabulary and grammatical structures.
  
  Instruction is through the immersion method; limited English is spoken in the class after the first few weeks. Grammatical structure is taught orally throughout the curriculum, as required by given situations, rather than in a structured series of exercises. The ultimate goal of the study of world languages at ESA is to demonstrate that a world language can become a natural means of communication and an integral part of life.
  
  The ideal candidate will engage students in a variety of ways to engender enthusiasm for the lessons, and he/she will embrace the idea of the immersion method. A Bachelor’s degree is required, and a Master’s degree or higher is preferred. Ideal candidates should have a high degree of fluency in both Spanish and French (at least Advanced on the ACTFL proficiency level or at least B2 on the DELF framework).
