Pre-Sessional EAP Tutor

Job Details

Summer & Autumn Pre-sessional English tutors
We are looking to recruit experienced and committed EAP tutors to deliver English for Academic Purposes (EAP) classes on our summer Pre-sessional English courses. These Pre-sessional courses prepare students for entry to their degree programme through development of academic language and skills.
