You will work in a team of 7 other academic teachers. Specifically, you will be teaching several academic writing and presenting classes for second-year business & economics students and one or more freshman English legal and academic communication courses in the Global Law program as well as possibly an academic writing course for PhD researchers. Courses have been prepared and all course materials are available, but alterations to suit your own style or suggestions on how to make the in-class activities more engaging are welcomed.

Other courses you will be teaching will depend on your expertise, preferences and practical scheduling logistics. Teaching takes place on site in groups of max. 25 students.
