Hünenberg, Schweiz International School of Zug and Luzern Vollzeit

General Description

The High School Maths teacher is responsible for fostering a passion for Mathematics and mathematical thinking among students throughout the High School. The successful candidate will have an inclusive and creative approach to teaching and will work collaboratively with the Mathematics department to develop engaging and inspirational learning experiences. Candidates should demonstrate intercultural competence and have a commitment to supporting students' social and emotional wellbeing, as well as their academic growth.

The successful candidate will be expected to construct learning experiences that challenge students, support the diversity of learners in each classroom and demonstrate a strong commitment to inquiry, concept-based teaching and learning. Please note that all high school teachers are also expected to teach IB Theory of Knowledge as needed, as well as supervise the Extended Essay and Personal Project processes for students.

The successful candidate will be expected to teach a variety of courses, some combination of IB MYP, DP and/or AP. Prior knowledge of these is preferred but not essential. In addition, all teachers participate in our student Personal Development Programme as a Homeroom, PSHE or Service Project leader and are also expected to support an ethos of holistic learning through their support of an after-school club, activity or sport.

Teachers are expected to meet (or commit to a growth plan to fulfil) the community expectations of both our Professional and Teaching Standards.
