Primary German Teacher (m/f/d), Cologne, Germany in Köln

Was du machen wirst:

Our German teachers work across the whole Primary department and play an important role in the life of the school.
German is a core element of the curriculum and is compulsory for all pupils in the Primary School. Although the working language of the school is English, all pupils are expected to develop or maintain a high level of fluency and literacy in our local language.
German is taught at a range of differentiated levels, with classes split between those learning German as a first language; those learning as a second language or near native level (our 'GSL' group); and those with no or little prior experience (our 'non-native' group).
Our non-native learners follow an accelerated course, and it is our aim that all learners achieve proficiency in the language. First language and GSL learners follow the local curriculum for German. Our German staff keep careful track of pupils' progress and maintain regular dialogue with parents.
