Job Purpose, Summary and Context
A rewarding opportunity exists to join the University of Warwick in the role of EAP Tutor on our summer Pre-sessional programme, reporting to the Assistant Course Director.
Over the years, our Pre-sessional English provision has successfully enabled thousands of students from across the globe to be well prepared for their university studies in the UK. Our Pre-sessional programmes are designed to support students’ academic, English language and extracurricular development and to access and excel on postgraduate-level programmes at the University of Warwick.
We are looking to appoint a number of well-qualified EAP tutors for our 10-week and 6-week Pre-sessional course for postgraduate students. The course will be delivered on campus at the University of Warwick. Tutors will teach a maximum of 17 contact hours per week, which includes 15 hours of teaching and 2 hours of tutorials.
Please note that there will be a 5-day induction period prior to the course start of 8 July (10 weeks) and 5 August (6 weeks) 2024, which is paid (six hours per day) and requires full attendance. The rate of pay includes a pro-rata holiday entitlement. Holidays should be taken outside the course dates.
Who are we looking for?
You will be a committed EAP teacher able to teach language and study skills through the use of authentic academic listening and reading texts appropriate to students’ academic needs. A course syllabus and lesson materials will be provided, and you will work with the guidance and support of an Assistant Director of Studies. Although materials are provided, you will be expected to supplement these to some extent with subject-specific materials, depending on the
needs of your particular students.
Applicants must be available for the entire duration of the course. Tutors are paid based on a full-time 36.5-hour week, which includes preparation, one-to-one feedback with students and marking, some pastoral responsibility, liaising with colleagues, communicating regularly with students, record keeping and attending meetings.
If your application is successful, you will be required to evidence your right to work in the UK. The University may be able to sponsor the employment of international workers in this role. This will depend on a number of factors specific to the successful applicant.
Contract Dates:
1 July – 13 September 2024 (10 weeks) and 29 July – 13 September (6 weeks) (includes 5 days of pre-course induction)
Interview date: week commencing 10th June
Equivalent to £33,966 (SP 27) – £44,263 (SP36) per annum. [£653 – £851 per week, plus holiday pay]
Please note that returning tutors will be entitled to an automatic progression on the university’s pay scale up to the top of the FA6 pay band (Spinal point 36).
There will be opportunities throughout the course for Professional Development (CPD), including support towards obtaining the BALEAP TEAP Fellowship award (https://www.baleap.org/accreditation/individuals).
All tutors will be observed by the management team during their delivery of the programme and will be encouraged to take part in peer observations.
Successful candidates can also benefit from free University of Warwick on-campus accommodation for the duration of their contract, subject to availability. Eligibility is decided on a case-by-case basis and further information regarding accommodation will be available if selected for interview. Please note that accommodation
is considered a benefit in kind by HMRC so may impact on your future tax code.
