Teach In Tunis
Opportunities throughout the year!
Where
AMIDEAST/Tunisia is located in the capital, Tunis—a
cosmopolitan, Mediterranean capital city that has grown
to a population of just under three million in the past five
years. Tunis is known for its pleasant climate, close proximity
to numerous historical sites such as legendary Carthage,
its attractive mix of Arab and European cultures, and easy
access to beautiful beaches and the Sahara Desert. An added
attraction is regular flights to most Arab and European
countries.
In September 2001 AMIDEAST opened a new center in Sousse,
the third largest city in Tunisia.
Our Classes
We offer small classes of fourteen or fifteen students, mostly in the evenings, to highly motivated adults, university students, and secondary school students. Core textbooks include the Cambridge University Press Interchange/New Interchange/Passages series. Courses are designed for fifteen proficiency levels and special, advanced ESP courses (in business management, banking English, aviation, TOEFL®, etc.) are offered each session for students who have reached level 7 or 8 in the regular program. Four nine-week regular sessions and four four-week intensive teaching sessions are offered every year. Each course includes 40 hours of instruction.
Our Staff
Current teaching staff is composed of dedicated professionals with RSA, CELTA or TESOL certificates and professional teaching experience. 20 or more teachers are employed on average per session. New teachers are given 500 DT for travel reimbursements after completing one full teaching year.
Compensation
Earnings are adequate for comfortable living, local and
regional travel. There are ample holidays and opportunities
for travel. Inexpensive Arabic and French courses are offered
at local schools. In addition to regular classes, it is
also possible to teach off-site classes for companies who
request specialized courses for their employees.
Qualifications
Potential teachers should have either RSA Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults (CELTA), TESOL or TEFL certification from an accredited program. Experience is a plus. Flexibility, patience and positive attitude towards students and colleagues are required. Only native speakers of English will be considered.
