Background:
The Language Training Programme (LCP) of the Center for Learning and Multilingualism (CLM), Office of the United Nations at Geneva (UNOG), promotes linguistic balance and multilingualism within the Secretariat and improves the language abilities of staff, as mandated by the General Assembly in its resolutions 2480 B (XXIII), 43/224D and 50/11. To do so the LTP offers language courses in Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian and Spanish.

A total of 14 language teachers, all of them staff members, are distributed across the six language programmes in the LTP to actively work in the development and the assessment of language skills offers aligned with organizational goals and priorities, and according to General Assembly mandates, UN policies and instructions on learning, and the Secretary General´s recommendations on multilingualism.

To attend the large demand of language learning these language teachers are unable to cover, the LTP needs to hire additional teachers as individual contractors on a part-time basis. The number of contractors to be hired varies depending on the demand.

The duties of part-time language teachers are to promote multilingualism and to help staff develop more effective work-related language skills in any of the six official languages. For the part-time French teacher, these duties include the following:
A. TEACHING AND ASSESSMENT

- Correcting assignments/homework.
- Providing group and individual feedback on students’ progress. As well as advice on ways to develop their linguistic skills.
- Administering and updating the LTP e-learning platform (Moodle).
- Carrying out the administrative duties directly related to their teaching, such as maintaining students’ attendance and grading records and communicating with students as needed.

B. ENGAGING IN PEDAGOGICAL
- Developing and updating course curricula and materials (paper-based and online).
- Preparing, updating and conducting assessments (exams, continuous assessment tasks, placement tests, etc.), including sharing knowledge of pedagogical and facilitation techniques.
