English Home Language Teacher (Senior Phase) – Entry Level

Teach at a faith-based independent school in Springs where your planning, marking and patience all count. You don't need to be the loudest person in the room, just the one others can count on.

The site is in Springs; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Start date: as soon as possible for the right person.

• Handle classroom discipline with the school's code of conduct
• Use data projectors, smartboards or tablets where the school has them

• Pension and medical aid for permanent posts
• Fee discount for your own children at independent schools
