English Teachers wanted for Summer and/or Winter language Camps

Location: Venice, Italy

Summary: MB International Summer Camp is looking for fantastic English (EFL) Teachers for their summer and winter camp programs. Teach, relax and have fun with students and a staff team from all over the world. They offer you the amazing opportunity to spend your summer or winter teaching at the beach or in the mountains and enjoying loads of different activities and excursions with the students on camp. The summer camp (holiday village) has 5 swimming pools, football pitches, volleyball, tennis and basketball courts, great classrooms, internet access as well as 1.2 km of beautiful private beach. 

Details: The following position is now available for 5 weeks during the summer months, this year, 27th June 2010 - 1st August 2010.  PLEASE DO NOT APPLY UNLESS YOU ARE AN OUTSTANDING ENGLISH TEACHER, FULL OF ENERGY AND PASSIONATE ABOUT SUMMER CAMPS!

MB International Summer Camp offers students in 3 age groups (8-12, 13-15 and 16-20) the chance to come to Italy and study either English or Italian. As well as languages lessons, students have the opportunity to do a wide range of other activities both sporting and creative as well as simply chilling on the beach if they wish. In 2009, they welcomed students from 21 different nationalities and hope this figure grows for the summer 2010!

With this in mind, they are looking for experienced and qualified teachers who have a lively disposition and plenty of energy and stamina. It is essential that applicants have experience  working with children and possess other skills that would be useful in other areas of camp life, like teaching sports or dance or drama or arts and crafts.

It is also helpful, but not essential, that applicants have had previous summer camp experience. All teachers must have good common sense and be able to work individually as well as part of a team. They must be presentable and be totally trustworthy. The teaching team also leads students in other activities in camp such as the sports and creative sessions and will also be responsible for the students on excursions and during the evening.

The camp is operational in 2010 from 27th June – 1st August. However it is not necessary to be available for the full period. The positions are residential but a non residential position can be considered for teachers who live near to the camp. The recruitment process is to email your CV and if it is good then you will receive an email with a questionnaire that will need to be completed and returned by email. From there, if you are successful, you will be invited to a face-to-face interview in their office in Padova. They want to be proud of their teachers and due to this they interview all successful applicants face-to-face to ensure their on going commitment to quality.
