English Teacher

• As a high English Teacher at CCF, you will be responsible for teaching English using 21st century pedagogy.
• Specifically, our curriculum is CLIL-based, so the teacher is expected to teach content and critical thinking skills along with the subject matter.
• Each unit consists of an Essential Question, which is answered through many sources (articles, videos), which are used to teach vocabulary, grammar, and critical thinking skills, resulting in an original answer to the question.
• Students will be assessed through a team performance task that showcases their knowledge and understanding of the topic.
• The teacher will be able to follow an outlined program, but will also be responsible for adapting the lesson plans to their specific class.
• The teacher should not impose their own views onto the students, but rather encourage them to form their own opinions after being exposed to many viewpoints.
• The teacher should be comfortable using online learning platforms (e.g. Google Classroom) as well as online organization tools (e.g. Google Calendar).
• It is also important to have a positive, friendly attitude and be able to adapt your teaching to the ability and progress of your students.
• In addition, you will take part in regular training in 21st century pedagogical approaches and CLIL teaching, as well as taking part in a continual English-language development program for teachers overseen by the leadership.
• Due to the unpredictability of these times, you should be highly flexible and ready to adapt to a new environment at short notice.
• Model the organization’s values and associated behaviors in and out of the classroom.
• Give instructions in clear, calm, simplified English rather than complex English or Khmer.
• Encourage students to communicate in English wherever possible.
• Encourage students to form original opinions and justify them.
• Lead activities based on all levels of Bloom’s Taxonomy.
• Cooperate as a member of a teaching team to plan.
• Use Google Classroom to manage key assignments and grading.
• Use Google Drive and related software to manage planning and materials.
• Create a classroom environment conducive to learning and appropriate to the maturity and interests of the students.
• Promote a nurturing atmosphere to support the student’s emotional well-being and positive self-esteem.
