Pre-sessional EAP Tutors

The University of Southampton is one of the UK's top universities, offering well-established Pre-sessional Programmes. Staff benefits include a competitive salary, subsidised accommodation, four-day induction, comprehensive materials, and professional guidance and development throughout. Due to the high student interest in our summer Pre-sessional programmes we are looking to expand our team of experienced EAP Tutors, successful candidates will work as either Reading and Writing Tutors or Listening and Speaking Tutors.

You should be a graduate with a CELTA (or equivalent), ideally hold a DELTA or relevant postgraduate qualification, and have experience in teaching EFL. Experience of teaching EAP on a Pre-sessional programme is advantageous, but candidates wishing to extend their experience in EAP will be considered.
