English Teacher in Dominican Republic

(Empleo)

DESCRIPTION

Liceo Científico Dr. Miguel Canela Lázaro is the first and only public STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics) school in the Dominican Republic. It is open to selected students in grades 7-12 (secondary level) from the Hermanas Mirabal Province. There are currently 540 students enrolled. It is an experimental school, whose focus is to change the future of our youth from rural communities, by offering an excellent academic preparation that will enable them to access high performing universities. The Hermanas Mirabal Province, the smallest in the country and compossed mostly of rural areas and few small towns, is located in the northeastern quadrant of Hispaniola.

EMPLOYMENT

For the students at Liceo Científico to have access to the best of opportunities, they need to have a high standard of English. In 2017, several students successfully passed the TOEFL exam, which enables them to attend universities internationally. We now want to raise that figure and improve the English level of all students.

We recruit international faculty in all areas, as we expand our enrollment, to teach core classes, to assist in curriculum improvement and implementation, and to co-teach and serve as  mentors for local Dominican teachers in training who, after a year of professional support, become full-fledged teachers.

Liceo Científico is looking for teachers to join the English (ESL) department to develop and strengthen teaching and learning. Responsibilities would typically include:

  • Mentoring new teachers
  • Planning and implementing an English Academy to support weaker students through structured peer teaching
  • Teaching English lessons
  • Developing the use of literature to teach ESL
  • Developing extra-curricular English opportunities

Those interested can also contribute to the wider school mission through involvement with environmental programs such as beach cleaning, managing of greenhouses and community projects.
