As one of our Business & Entrepreneurship teachers, you will lead a series of interactive workshops, practical tasks and case studies designed to teach our students what it takes to be an entrepreneur, the fundamentals of starting a business and marketing a product. Throughout the course, your aim will be to teach your students essential business skills such as how to develop an idea, build a business plan and market a product. You will also help them develop their interpersonal and leadership skills such as public speaking and presentation skills, team building, managing others, goal setting, time management and communication skills. At the heart of this course is teaching students about values-based business and the importance of keeping people, both customers and employees, at the forefront of this. As an ISSOS teacher you have your own class of international students aged 13-18 years old. Our classes are kept small in order to provide individual attention, personalised instruction and create an encouraging, supportive and fun environment for students to learn while making new friends from around the world. We’re seeking someone with first-hand experience in setting up and running a business – someone who can share their expertise to inspire students, spark their interest in entrepreneurship, and help them explore the opportunities around them. Although we provide every teacher a guide as to what each lesson should achieve, we ask our teachers to bring their own experience and personality to each class and create their own stimulating and challenging lesson plans. All of our summer positions are fully residential and all of our staff teams will be actively involved in the various events and activities that we put on for our students.
