Please send your CV with a covering letter and a sample lesson plan.

As we receive many applications each recruitment round, candidate files will be reviewed by our Management team to identify a good fit with our needs. If your application falls into this category, a follow-up process will take place.

We try to reply to each application personally, but this might not always be possible. Just to give you an idea, before Covid-19 we used to get around 100 CVs per advert, last time we have received over 440 CVs. Once we fill the advertised positions, we stop our advert, but continue contacting interesting candidates in order to put them into our database for possible future cooperation. This means that you could be contacted even 4-6 weeks later and get some teaching hours in the near future. Therefore, we would like to ask you to state it in your 1st email whether you agree to be put on our contact list for a future teaching job in case you are not going to be successful this time.
