Teaching Position
We’re growing our team for September 2024!
We are looking for an EFL specialist to teach General English and Cambridge exam preparation to small groups of children, teens and adults.
Abbiate English is a small English language school founded in 2009 in Abbiategrasso near Milan, Italy.
In September 2022 we moved to new modern and specially designed premises just outside the historic centre where we continue to offer high-quality English Language services to students of all ages from the surrounding area. Since March 2020 we also offer courses online. We are currently expanding the business in different directions and we’ve just introduced a Summer School programme in the month of June for example. We have adopted the latest Oxford materials for Primary School this year and we’ve developed our teaching style to effectively use the large interactive panels newly installed in the classrooms. Our qualified and experienced team of teachers is passionate, dedicated, well organised and super friendly and we’re looking for a new member to join us from September 2023.
The classrooms and the admin zone are attractive, colourful and well-equipped, creating a welcoming place in which to work and study. We have a good local reputation and a solid student return rate. Abbiategrasso is 15 minutes by train from Milan, which has two international airports and well-developed transport networks. It is a pleasant town in the Ticino river park with a population of about 33,000 people. It has a small lively historic centre with a castle and weekly markets and is an ideal countryside base for visiting Milan and the rest of Italy.
