AUSTRIA / ABCi – Austrian Bilingual English Classroom Initiative
The trainee will teach English to German-speaking students from the ages of 8 to 15 for a not-for-profit organization headquartered in the Austrian Lake District in Austria, the region made famous by the “Sound of Music” movie. Bilingual education has become increasingly popular in Austrian secondary schools and ABCi has recently launched a major effort to expand their outreach program.
ABCi has a special focus on bringing free English lessons to rural and often otherwise overlooked children in the alpine region. Teaching takes place in different schools during in-school projects and via an online VLE, necessitating travel in and around Austria. In addition, the successful applicant will be given experience in the administration of a NGO in the education sector by taking part in project work and program development at ABCi headquarters.
The trainee is provided with training in teaching English as a foreign language, project work, feedback from a senior teacher, full room and board with internet access, travel costs, evenings, weekends and Austrian public holidays free. At the conclusion of the intensive ESL training program and trainee placement, the successful candidate will be awarded with a TEFL Certificate for Young Learners (which includes 24 hours of teacher training seminars, 48 observed teaching hours and a 4-week intensive Trinity College London CertTESOL component with 6 further observed teaching hours).
Course Dates: 6th April 2015 to 1st August 2015 and 24th August 2015 to 24th December 2015.
The ideal candidate will speak English at a native speaker level of fluency and have a teaching certification or experience working with children.
