FLES Opening |
The Singapore American School, the largest American
international school in the world, will have a vacancy
in its new FLES program (Intermediate School, grades
3-5) in Spanish for next year. The program meets daily
for 40 minutes per session. In addition to a handsome
salary, the school provides moving costs, a housing
allowance, a liberal holiday schedule and a round-trip
ticket to the United States every year.
Currently, there is a staff of four Spanish teachers in
place. The new teacher will join a department that is
highly competent and well-trained. This new teacher
needs to have strong language skills, experience at
teaching Spanish to younger learners, a willingness and
eagerness to work closely with colleagues and a
willingness to continue to learn about effective
teaching of languages.
Candidates interested in the position should contact
Greg Duncan at
interprep@earthlink.net as soon as possible. |

Online Elementary WL Methods Course Offered
Spring 2013 |
|
There are still a few spaces left in the Spring 2013
online course, “Methods in Elementary School World
Language Instruction,” which is designed for practicing
and pre-service teachers. In this course, 14 national
leaders in early world language education collaborate
with Dr. Marcia H. Rosenbusch, Iowa
State University, by teaching course components in their
areas of expertise. The collaborators, including
practicing teachers and teacher trainers, represent both
the commonly and the less commonly taught languages.
This course meets the requirement for the specialized
methods course for the Iowa Endorsement in K-8 World
Language Education. Check with your State Department of
Education to see if this course meets requirements for
endorsement or certification in your state.
