St. John's seeks to hire a part-time Mandarin Chinese teacher for the High School (grades 9 through 12). The ideal candidate would be able to teach all levels of Chinese language, literature, and culture. We are particularly interested in candidates with demonstrated effectiveness in teaching from a full immersion approach that includes the ACTFL "5 Cs and 3 Modes" of language and culture learning while using technology as a vehicle for learning gains.
All members of the faculty at St. John's are expected to give witness to our mission and to our identity as an inclusive, Catholic, Xaverian Brothers Sponsored School. In addition to classroom teaching responsibilities, St. John's encourages all members of the faculty to be involved in the life of the school beyond the classroom. The school offers a wide range of co-curricular, recreational, and interscholastic programs.
