You are a trustworthy teacher with empathy, a sense of humor, and a touch of idealism, committed to the well-being of our students. With creative approaches, you inspire young people to engage with languages, especially English, ideally also French or German.

Openness to new forms of learning
Enjoyment of working with young people
What you can expect from us:
A varied and wide-ranging role with ample room for initiative, creativity, and new ideas

didactics of exemplary, discovery-based learning
A place to live and work in the heart of the Swiss Alps, inviting you to ski, hike, cycle, and enjoy many other outdoor
activities, also during holidays
The possibility for your children aged 12 to 19 to attend our school
