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.
A full induction, course syllabus and materials are provided. We are particularly interested in tutors available for the Summer 10 and 5 week courses.
We also deliver Autumn Pre-sessional courses and will be recruiting for these later in the year. We would be happy to hear from candidates who are available to teach on both summer and autumn courses.
Please clearly state the courses that you would like to apply for on your application form.
Please note that we can only consider applications from tutors who already have eligibility to work in the UK as these posts will not be eligible for sponsorship under tier 2.
