About the role

The University of Leicester has partnered with Dalian University of Technology (DUT) since 2017 offering a range of College of Science and Engineering Bachelor degree programmes.

The courses are taught in English by academic staff from the UK and PRC, integrating an intensive English Language course within the first year of degree.

You should be able to adapt to institutional and student needs and be willing to collaborate with colleagues in the ongoing development of the English language programme.

You will hold a recognised TEFLQ qualification, such as DELTA, with substantial experience EFL. You will also have experience of teaching on pre-sessional or in-sessional EAP courses in a university context.
