Folkuniversitetet is seeking multiple course instructors for our open course offerings in Fall 2026 and Spring 2027. We primarily seek instructors who can teach on-site in Umeå, but we also welcome applications from those who can work in other locations in Västerbotten.
In Umeå, we primarily seek instructors in German, Spanish, and Chinese. We also welcome applications from those who can teach Korean, Sámi, Somali, and other languages. In other locations in Västerbotten, we currently see the greatest need in Swedish as a Second Language and English, but other languages may also be relevant.
We prioritize applicants who can teach in Umeå. Recruitment for other locations is based on need, which means applicants who can only work outside Umeå may be contacted later. Please indicate in your cover letter which languages you can teach and which location(s) you can work in.
We are looking for you who
have excellent proficiency in the language you want to teach, through native speaker ability and/or relevant education
have pedagogical understanding and pedagogical experience
have experience in adult education and an active interest in the field
are flexible, organized, positive, and motivating
can work on-site in the evenings and/or on weekends in Umeå or another location in Västerbotten
It is advantageous if you
have teacher education in the language you want to teach, or are currently training to become a teacher. This is particularly advantageous in Swedish as a Second Language and English, where we may have higher requirements for certain assignments
are multilingual, as our target audience is diverse
have good technical skills and experience teaching online or to hybrid groups
As an educator at Folkuniversitetet, you are expected to have the ability to tailor teaching to individual students and bring out each person's potential. It is important that you enjoy sharing knowledge and see the positive in course participants' development. You are flexible, responsive, and organized, and have experience working independently.
