Job description
English Excel is a British-owned company that was founded in 2000. We have a number of English language learning centres across Hong Kong and we continue to broaden our horizons. We pride ourselves on providing our students with a high-quality, interactive and nurturing learning environment. Classes are strongly geared towards oral interaction as well as reading and writing. We limit our class sizes to a maximum of 4 students to offer an ideal learning and teaching environment. Due to our small class sizes, we can place our students according to their level of English rather than their age. We are a registered Trinity College London Examination Centre.
Students enrol at English Excel for differing reasons, here are some of the most common:
* Practice English
* Improve confidence in speaking English
* Prepare for primary and secondary school interviews – often there’s a part of the interview requiring children to speak in English.
* Learn phonics
* Improve reading
* Improve grammar
* Improve writing
* Have fun, meet with Westerners and take away the scare factor that Westerners can sometimes be perceived to have!
Successful applicants will work in one of our twelve schools as part of a small team. They’ll be responsible for teaching, planning and preparing their lessons, and for completing related admin. We offer a comprehensive induction programme for new teachers and plenty of opportunities to develop their professional skills, with many involved with curriculum development. We believe consistency for our students is vital, so contracts are a minimum of 12 to 14 months.
