German Teacher
We are looking for professional, qualified German teachers for our groups of children, teenagers and their parents in Airport West, Accra. Groups never have more than four learners.
What you bring
- A teaching degree: a Bachelor of Education, or a Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science from a teacher training programme such as the German Lehramt, plus a few years of teaching experience. A Master of Education is an advantage.
- Teaching practice, internships or teaching experience at a German-language school, whether in Germany, Switzerland, Austria or elsewhere, is a strong advantage.
- German at C2 level. Most of our teachers are native speakers.
- Experience with children and teenagers, or a clear wish to work with them.
- Good spoken English and residence in Accra, because all lessons take place in person.
What the work looks like
- Lessons of 60 minutes, Tuesday to Friday between 12pm and 5pm and on Saturday between 10am and 2pm.
- Pay of GHS 200 to GHS 400 per teaching day, depending on qualification. A teaching day means up to six hours on site from Tuesday to Friday and up to four hours on Saturday, with lessons and materials prepared for you. Teaching two days a week comes to about GHS 1,700 to GHS 3,500 a month.
- Prepared materials, a learning room set up for small groups, and a library of German books.
- Levels from first words to C2, from German for Preschoolers to Goethe exam preparation for teenagers.
How to apply: Send your CV and a short note about your teaching experience to info@studyfreunde.com. Please tell us which age groups and levels you have taught, and when you could start.
A small team in a real learning centre
Studyfreunde is a learning centre in Airport West, Accra, not a large institution. You would be part of a small team that knows every learner by name, working in classrooms that are set up for small groups and for children who are just starting out with German.
Days are varied. Some hours are quiet preparation, others are busy with lessons, playgroups and families coming through the door. If you like both sides of that, you will feel at home here.
