Canadian-American Schools has 4 full-time teaching positions available from Aug. 4th 2008 (2 positions) and Aug. 25th (2 positions), 2008.
Our new semester begins in August and we are looking for teachers who wish to work in a fun, creative and energetic environment where children come first.

Our core kindergarten programs are English-immersion classes for 3 to 6 year-olds.
Our entire staff speaks English and it is the medium of instruction and communication used at all times with our students.
Class times are Monday to Friday, 9:15 a.m. to 3:50 p.m. with a 2-hour lunch break and two additional 20-minute breaks to allow for teacher preparation.
Classes are arranged by age and the number of students never exceeds 16 per class.
Our curriculum covers a range of learning goals and is similar to North American kindergarten or pre-school programs.

Our evening program (4:40 p.m. to 6:10 p.m.) offers additional overtime teaching income.
Students are 6 to 14 years in age and class size is limited to 12 students. Our evening classes emphasize English for communicative purposes and give students a headstart on the English they will study in junior high school.
