Finer English is an established, thriving language school started by Joe Finer in 1998. The school's success is built on a structured approach to teaching, centred on language audits to determine not only the students' competence in English but also the specific work activities for which English is necessary. All students are taught according to their individual learning needs. We are seeking a full-time EFL teacher for an immediate start to teach small groups of business professionals according to their individual learning needs.
Focusing primarily on companies in Kassel, Germany, the school's teaching team now numbers 26, including teachers for six languages besides English.
Finer English is a virtual school - we have no school building and no staff-room where teachers can swap ideas at lunch-time. Lessons are taught on our clients' premises - all of which are reachable by public transport from Kassel city centre.
Because teachers do not meet daily, regular communication by telephone and e-mail is essential. Teacher training sessions are held every few months to develop teaching skills, exchange ideas and reinforce the co-operative team spirit.
Teaching according to each student's specific business needs means we use no set text books unless specifically requested. Teaching materials appropriate to the needs of each individual student are provided by Finer English.
