Job Details

They are looking for English teachers for a minimum commitment of 10 weeks, to deliver English classes to refugees and asylum seekers in the Epirus region of Northern Greece. The ideal candidate would have experience teaching English as a foreign/second language and would possess a strong understanding of or passion for the context we work in. Experience in delivering educational activities in this context is a strong advantage.

Your role would include:

Planning and delivering lessons for classes that can range from A0 (illiteracy) to B2, taking into account individual differences in level within each class
Preparing class materials and assessments
Empowering students with interpersonal – and life – skills and incorporating these skills into lesson planning
Completing various administrative tasks such as tracking attendance and communicating class updates to the students
Ensuring student engagement and progress
Working closely with the Education Manager to ensure the programme is being delivered to the expected standards of Second Tree
Participating in various community engagement activities so as to maintain relationships with students outwith the classroom context such as: picnics, community excursions, sporting events, etc.

Additional Benefits

What do they offer?

A nurturing and collaborative working environment. We work hard to help our team members grow; investing in personal and professional development.
Accommodation in a shared house
Transportation to/from work
After completion of a three-month trial, if you commit long-term, a small monthly expenses refund

In certain periods of the year, demand is extremely high, and the shared houses might be full. If you have the means to pay for your own accommodation, please let them know. They would still be happy to host you if space is available. However, in a situation where the shared houses are full, this would allow them to offer an opportunity to someone that cannot afford to pay rent.

If, because of your degree or for any other reason, you would like to have your period at Second Tree credited as an internship, just apply to the vacancy that you’re interested in and mention this. We have agreements with several universities across Europe, and in many other cases, these agreements can be developed on an ad hoc basis.

Requirements

You should be able to:

Communicate in an open, honest, direct manner
Be dependable, and willing to adapt when necessary
Be willing to enforce strict classroom management
Manage a wide range of tasks and intense workload effectively and efficiently
Be able to give and receive feedback in the most straightforward way
Have strong communication, interpersonal and writing skills
Care for people: the interests of the people we work with should always be your first concern
Work independently and in a team
