JOB RESPONSIBILITIES
As a native language teacher in English with us, you have an important assignment in strengthening students' linguistic identity and their ability to learn in all subjects. You become part of an organization that views the native language as a valuable resource for the student's entire school career and as a path to better understanding the Swedish language. The role involves planning and conducting both native language instruction and study guidance in English where you, together with other teachers, create the best possible learning experience. Your focus is to help students develop their native language and understand the school's various subjects with the help of their language.
QUALIFICATIONS
To succeed in the role of native language teacher, you have a special ability to create engagement and make language learning meaningful for your students. You show judgment in your work and can independently plan your day and your efforts at different units. Since you meet many different colleagues and students during a week, it is important that you collaborate effectively with others and have an easy time adapting your instruction and approach based on the student's age and needs.

- Has teaching certification with qualifications in English, or other pedagogical education that we consider equivalent.
- Has very good language skills in English in both speech and writing.
- Has good knowledge of the Swedish language to be able to collaborate with colleagues and interpret curricula.
- Holds a B driver's license. As the position involves teaching at several different schools and preschools during the same day, you need to be able to move easily between our dispersed units.
- Has good digital competence to use municipal learning platforms and digital tools in instruction.
