Our classes combine English learning, hands-on science, outdoor exploration and STEM inquiry. Students learn science through real observation, experiments, building challenges, discussion and simple presentations.

Lesson plans, materials and teaching support will be provided.

• Deliver engaging English science lessons for young learners
• Guide students through observation, questioning, experiments and hands-on tasks
• Use simple and clear English instructions suitable for children
• Encourage students to speak, describe, explain and present their ideas
• Support classroom safety, behaviour management and group activities
• Work with Chinese teaching assistants and programme coordinators
• Give brief feedback after class when needed

What We Provide

• Support from Chinese co-teachers and coordinators
• A creative and nature-based teaching environment
• Opportunities to teach CREST Awards and STEM project courses
• Long-term weekend teaching opportunities
Ideal Candidate
The ideal teacher is energetic, warm and curious. You do not need to be a science specialist, but you should be willing to learn, explore and guide children to think like young scientists.
We value teachers who can help children ask questions, try ideas, explain their thinking and enjoy learning science in English.
How to Apply
Please send:
• Your CV
• A short self-introduction
• Your teaching experience with children
• Your weekend availability
• A short teaching video, if available
We look forward to hearing from teachers who love science, nature and working with young learners.
