The University of Manchester Hiring for Academic English Tutor Job at Manchester, England Full Time

We’re looking for an Academic English tutor who could work across our full range of programmes.

You’d be joining a good Centre – we’re internally satisfied that we’ve more than ‘got through’ the constant unpredictability of 2020-21, and externally it seems like we’re doing the right thing with the British Council (still) rating us as having more areas of strength than any other University Centre.

In that context, your ability to do the role as described should be a given and (obviously) the more qualifications and experience you have, the more the chance to shine in the application process. If that ability comes with significant energy, some examples of how you’ve inspired peers, and applicable thoughts on the different modes of teaching, then you should apply.

But the reality is that you’d also be joining a group of people who are continuously questioning the ‘what’, ‘how’, ‘where’ and ultimately ‘why’ of everything we do – not always with pedagogical agreement. We’d probably also say Covid has only increased these questions … but it is at least making us think of the possibilities – no bad thing.

Ultimately we really need to know that whoever joins us will add to the ‘well, we can…’ conversations, not the ‘we can’t…’ – and we’ll be looking for that in the process. In other words, work with us to identify the teaching challenge and help us solve, develop, guide summer colleagues, and teach what we come up with.

As an equal opportunities employer we welcome applicants from all sections of the community regardless of age, sex, gender (or gender identity), ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation and transgender status. All appointments are made on merit.
