• Assess students regularly, track their progress and give clear feedback
• Help students with the German they will need for everyday life and the workplace, including interviews and professional communication
• Work with the recruitment and placement teams so that language training meets the needs of employers abroad
• Teach at different branches and report regularly to the Managing Director on class progress and exam outcomes

• A strong command of German, preferably at B2 level or higher, with a certificate to prove it
• A degree, which will be greatly preferred, preferably in German, Languages, Linguistics or Education
• Previous experience teaching German or another language to adult learners
