Join our World Class Learning Community

Start Date: August 1, 2024

Location: Wassenaar, on the north side of The Hague
Language Skills: Fluency in both English and Dutch, native speakers preferred.

You believe that school is preparation for life, more than simply the next level of school. You are passionate about Middle School, understanding the key role you play in enabling student growth and development, preparing students for success in their future. Just as in life outside the classroom, you believe that students with different backgrounds, gender identities, and learning abilities benefit from working together.

You understand team dynamics and work well with teams of other educators and with administrators. You are an excellent communicator and see parents as your partners in their child's education. As a lifelong learner you are energized by new ideas, professional development and sharing your learning with your colleagues. You are solution-oriented and like to contribute to a positive, enjoyable working environment. The status quo is never good enough for you.

You are independent and confident in the classroom. When making decisions, you focus on how we can best serve our entire learning community, always looking for a way in which we can make ASH just that extra bit better for them. You recognize that learning is not confined to a classroom or a timetable. Having an open mind and being able to give and receive constructive feedback is something you pride yourself on.

You are a certificated, Middle School Language (Dutch) Teacher with a Bachelor's degree, preferably also a Masters in a relevant area. With at least five years Middle School experience in an American, Canadian, or international school. You are familiar with current international educational practices. Authentic assessment techniques, mixed-ability grouping, differentiation and strategies for students with learning differences are all familiar territory for you. You have both a theoretical understanding of, and classroom experience in applying developmentally appropriate, inclusive and differentiated practices. You have a solid background in technology in the classroom and you see IT as an enabler for you and for learning.

In addition you;

promote the use of multiple methods in solving problems, identifying more efficient strategies and generalizing principles to a broad variety of applications, have knowledge and/or experience with TPRS (Teaching Proficiency through Reading and Storytelling) input-based approach to teaching language and/or CI (Comprehensible Input), have a strong background in Standard-Based Grading and Reporting, have a strong background in working with special education, service learning, and gifted students is preferred.

The Role : The Middle School, Grades 5 to 8, supports close to 300 international students. Your role is supervised by the Middle School Principal and Assistant Principal and you’ll collaborate closely with the Department Head and grade level teams. In addition to your grade level teams, you’ll be working with colleagues in other grade levels. Vertical and horizontal collaboration is key to this role. As a member of the 35 strong team of Middle School classroom and instructional teachers, you will work both independently and with teams of other teachers, specialists and with the school administration.

The Work : As a Middle School Dutch Teacher, your daily activities involve teaching the lesson plans that you have prepared. In support of your teaching, you will find the documented historical curriculum at school. This information and the ACTFL standards will guide you in preparing your lesson plans. You will update and continue to develop the program using our resources. On a daily basis, you will teach five blocks of Dutch. You will also lead an advisory group (pastoral care) and have various supervisory duties throughout the week. You will plan and implement effective lessons with scaffolded learning activities. You encourage learning through discovery, selecting age appropriate projects for the students so they can become hands-on learners. Whether in the classroom, the library, learning music or P.E., participating in athletics, or getting involved in gardening, your students are always learning. After classes and at the end of the school day, you’ll be available to assist students during some non-teaching periods for extra tutorial. 

Strong, open communications are your hallmark. Regular communications with parents is essential as you provide and explain information regarding students’ social, academic, and behavioral progress. You will be actively involved in school-wide, divisional, and grade level meetings and have the opportunity to engage fully and openly in a professional learning community. Your voice matters in the conversation as to how we can all best serve the needs of our students. If you have talents or interests outside of school in the areas of music, athletics, the arts or other such interests, bring them with you as you’ll be participating in after school activities in support of our students. You will be fully involved in daily life at ASH. Your “can do” attitude will be essential for your success in your daily school life. 

*We reserve the right to close the vacancy before the application deadline.
