Fixed and Floating Positions Available
Note about Float Positions
Due to their size and diverse needs, this school hires several ‘float’ teachers, in anticipation of new classes opening up due to expansion and/or reallocation of teachers. Float teachers may not initially have an assigned class, and will instead act as in house substitutes and/or learning support and/or administrative support until a class opens up. This means that they may have low contact time at first. When a suitable class becomes available they have the benefit of knowing the school, the children and the culture so it’s a good opportunity for teachers to ease their way into international teaching while getting a full teacher’s salary and benefits throughout their employment, regardless of their day to day assignment. We think it's an excellent opportunity for flexible and adaptable teachers who might want a bit more time to settle in.

Passport holders from the USA / Canada / UK / Eire / NZ / AUS
New graduates (newly qualified teachers) are welcome to apply.
Unqualified teachers are also welcome but the salary will be lower.

This has been a learning experience I will always remember, it was so meaningful to me to make impact with the learners not just from a quantitative perspective but also to see them bloom internally, I have learnt so much about the Kuwait culture and workplace dynamic in the Middle East that I will remember for the rest of my life.
