Afrikaans First Additional Language Teacher

Teach at a faith-based independent school in Kimberley where your planning, marking and patience all count. It's the kind of job where doing the basics well every day gets you noticed.

This post is in Kimberley (Northern Cape). Please only apply if you can travel there daily. Shifts rotate, so you'll need to be flexible about days and nights.

• Use data projectors, smartboards or tablets where the school has them
