Part-Time ESL Instructor – Fall Semester

A CEA-accredited ESL school serving adult international and domestic students is seeking a part-time ESL instructor for the Fall semester. This is an on-site teaching position with approximately 5–10 teaching hours per week, depending on enrollment, qualifications, and availability.

The schedule is planned in advance and generally remains consistent throughout the semester. The position may be renewed for future semesters based on enrollment, performance, and scheduling needs. The school provides an established curriculum, instructional materials, and assessments, allowing instructors to focus primarily on effective teaching and student engagement rather than developing courses from the beginning.
