Online French Instructor

Hi everyone-We are looking for native-level French speaking instructors who have an interest in language, strong communication skills, and a love of working with and exploring other cultures. This is a supplementary position which many of our instructors take on in addition to their primary jobs. The position is part-time (22.5 hours of availability per week), and freelance. We have openings for French instructors who can be available for five 4.5 hour shifts: The shifts available are from Mon-Fri 08:30-13:00pm CET. We work in 45 minute teaching units. Most classes are 2 units (1.5 hrs), some are 3 units (2.25 hrs). Each 45 minute teaching unit includes a 5 minute break. The 4.5 hour shifts enable a teacher to teach three back-to-back lessons in a period of peak demand. This is not the norm, but it does happen from time to time. The monthly average unit rate ranges from 70-80 units in a quiet month to 110-120 in a busy one. We provide both training and work materials, and of course we take care of scheduling the students, billing them, and we provide technical support during all work hours. All teachers have an online calendar and they know in advance when their classes will be. If a student no-shows, or has a late cancellation, the instructor is paid in full. As it is an online position, of course we need to know that the teachers meet our minimum technical requirements. All teachers need to have a Windows-based system (pc or laptop), and access to a stable internet connection (cable connection only) of 2 Mbps download, 1 Mbps upload speed. Macs are also fine, as long as they have OS X.1 or higher. If you are interested, please let me know. I will be happy to arrange a meeting on Skype to speak with you and tell you more about the position. If this is not for you, but you know of other native pedagogically inclined French speakers who might be interested in this job let me know.
