Teach English as Foreign Language in the UK

KKCL is looking for enthusiastic, passionate and flexible EFL / ESL teachers to teach juniors (9-17) and adults this
summer on our Go Create! English and General English courses.

KKCL Juniors is a summer school with a difference! We have developed our own creative English language
programme, which sees our juniors doing projects as diverse as Filmmaking, Songwriting, Radio Drama Production
and Artificial Intelligence, while learning and improving their English at the same time. If you love working with kids
and see them activate their creativity and enthusiasm, all the while helping them develop their skills and confidence
in English, then this is the place for you!

KKCL also welcomes adults at our summer school, and our adult General English classes are topic-based and
communicative, in order to equip students with the tools they need to take their English one step further. We follow
a flexible syllabus that allows teachers to use their creativity and experience to tailor lessons to suit the needs and
interests of their class.

For summer 2020 all our classes will be in the Harrow area – Harrow flagship school & St Dominic’s College (Harrow
School Boarding House Programme), with our residential students boarding at the world famous and extremely
prestigious Harrow School. Recruitment is now open for non-residential teachers who can commute to the Harrow
area (nearest tube Sudbury Hill/ South Harrow & Harrow-on-the-Hill for St Dominic’s), are flexible in their ability to
teach juniors or adults and are looking to share an unforgettable British summer school experience with our students
from all around the world.
