Moscow Region - little or no commuting, professional school, easy access to vibrant Moscow

About the Job

Overview

International Educational Centre invites teachers for the 2018-19 academic year. We are looking for professional, reliable and motivated teachers to join our friendly team.

Our schools are all located about 15-25 minutes by public transport to the Metro, and all are within 45 minutes to the very centre of the exciting metropolis that is Moscow! This means easy access to the city centre but also slightly cheaper living costs, a closer connection to the local community, and proximity to forests and lakes. We can also arrange for teachers to live close to a Metro station, meaning a short commute to work but even easier access to Moscow itself.

We teach all ages and levels, and our supportive management and staff help both teachers and students feel at home. We offer a highly competitive package and a pleasant working environment in return for lessons that will inspire our students to exceed their potential.
