Job Description

GLASSWARE TO CLASS WEAR, GONDOLAS TO CRAYONS - TEACH IN ITALY!

Are you a great Nursery Practitioner eager to enjoy the delights of Italy while working in a brilliant accredited Private Nursery School? We have a nursery school in Venice who are looking for a full time, permanent English-speaking Foundation practitioner to begin on 1 September and carry on for the entire academic year. The position is in a Nursery class of no more than 15 children (aged 9 months to 5 years). You will be required to work 4 to 5 hours daily from Monday to Friday. Accommodation will be provided.

The main objective of this role is to bring up the young students using a bilingual approach where English can be taught through play, teaching and activities run by native English teachers; even though this is a bilingual school you do not need to speak Italian (although this would be desirable). So if you want to combine an amazing holiday atmosphere with working in an amazing school then apply today and enjoy the best of both worlds; teaching and Italy!

Applications close FRIDAY 30 JULY.

In the Heart of Mirano where famous world class glassware is produced you will enjoy true Italian culture and a great teaching atmosphere. Mirano is a tranquil town on the way between Venice and Padova so you will definitely enjoy yourself both in and out of the classroom. This Nursery benefits from being accredited by Veneto Region and Italian Ministry of Education and enjoys very strong supportive management and the benefits of home-school relationships.

To be considered for this once in a lifetime role you will be:

A fully qualified Early Years Teacher.

Right to work in Italy (EU/EEA passport or eligibility to apply for an Italian visa)

Able to speak and teach English fluently.

Able to demonstrate at least one year's teaching experience, preferably in Foundation (Reception or Nursery); day to day supply teaching experience will suffice.

Eligible to register in the country you trained in.

Enthusiastic.

Flexible.

A team player with good work ethic; have a 'can do' attitude

A definite added bonus will be a great sense of humour and a desire for adventure.
