Contracts of 7 weeks (7 July to 22 August 2025) or 11 weeks (9 June to 22 August 2025) are available. This post is fixed term and full-time (35 hours per week).
You will be joining an experienced and very supportive teaching and professional services team at this leading Russell Group university, as we work together with our highly motivated students to prepare them to confidently join their academic communities at the University of Edinburgh.

You will be a committed EAP teacher and keen to embrace reflective practice and professional development, and you will be committed to dignity, respect and collegiality.
The salary for this post is UE07 £40,247 to £47,874 per annum.
Your skills and attributes for success:
first degree and/or significant experience and standing in a professional, practice-based background relevant to the subject area
relevant Master’s Degree (or equivalent) or currently engaged in related post-graduate study
relevant language teaching qualification including observed teaching practice (if your qualification is less well-known, please describe the course content in your covering letter)
demonstrable teaching experience, for example UK Pre-Sessionals
up-to-date knowledge of current theory and practice in teaching, learning, course/materials design and assessment in the subject area
excellent IT skills and evidence of supporting the integration of technologies into learning, teaching and scholarship
