Job Details

Are you an enthusiastic teacher, committed to delivering a first class learning and teaching experience in English for Academic Purposes (EAP) and related topics? Can you pursue, develop and take forward pedagogic developments? Are you passionate about delivering an exceptional student experience in a research-intensive Russell Group University?

The University of Leeds is one of the top 75 universities in the world. We have a truly global community, with more than 39,000 students from 170 different countries and over 9,000 staff of 100 different nationalities. Established in 1904, we have a strong tradition of academic excellence, reflected in first-class student education, along with world-leading research that has a real impact around the globe.

As a Lecturer in EAP, you will develop and deliver engaging teaching within our large portfolio of programmes in academic language, discourse and literacy. The Language Centre (LC) at the University of Leeds teaches students from all levels: Foundation through to PhD, both in pathway programmes for students prior to beginning their degree studies, and on-course programmes. Our EAP teaching is now embedded across a wide range of Schools across the University, with EAP academics collaborating with colleagues in other disciplines to support students in developing their understanding of disciplinary academic discourse and literacy requirements. This role will focus on making a high quality contribution to student education on our international foundation year programming at the University of Leeds. You will also be required to lead on innovations in programmes and student education.

You will have a scholarship profile which reflects your career stage. With scholarship time a part of every Lecturer in EAP’s workload allocation, the LC boasts a large range of projects, with outputs including publications whether in national and international journals or our own online journal, The Language Scholar. Unique to Leeds is the degree of close working between language teaching professionals across all languages, with ample opportunity to work with colleagues in the wider School, and access to the resources and ambition of the largest school of languages in the UK.
