Here at La Casita de Inglés, we believe that learning should be fun! We teach English to children through games, arts & crafts, singing and dancing, theatre, yoga and baking! Almost all of the planning is provided for you, with teachers only having to tailor some of the ideas provided to them related to the topic of the week (outer space, sports, science, food, mindfulness, music, nature, etc.) to their specific groups. We don’t carry out exams and only require teachers to fill out progress reports every trimester. Classes are small and interactive, with a maximum of 8 children per class in our after-school programme (although this number can occasionally reach a maximum of 10 if students need to make up on any given week).
Tasks
Our after-school programme runs from: Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays 17:00-19:00 (15€/hour after tax), Thursdays and Fridays 17:30-19:30 (15€/hour after tax) and 11:00 - 13:00 on Saturdays (20 €/hour after tax). We also have a few early afternoon groups. It is not necessary to work every day, although we prefer you work with us for a minimum of 2-3 shifts/week for permanent positions. There is also the option to work in our many camps and workshops that run throughout the year, as well as great opportunity for growth within the company: managerial roles, using hobbies or talents you may have to organise workshops or even joining us at our central office.
We may also have shifts available in nearby schools.
Requirements
What we’re looking for: Fun, creative and enthusiastic teachers who love working with kids. You must also have at least six months of experience teaching or working with children in a professional capacity (not just babysitting or nannying, for example), as well as a perfect NATIVE English accent/C2 English certificate, or accent from any English speaking country.
The hiring process will include: being contacted via email if your CV passes, setting up a brief interview via Google Meets, and then setting up two days of trial classes.
If you make it through the hiring process but we no longer have any permanent shifts available and you would still like to work with La Casita, we are always hiring substitute teachers. Then, when we have new permanent shifts become available, we pull from the sub pool first. Becoming a sub is also a great way to get a foot in the door for future opportunities, like camps and workshops.
