Language Teachers

We are recruiting: English, Spanish and French teachers to join our team in the Swiss Alps this summer. Camp Suisse is looking for inspirational and talented individuals who have a real passion for teaching their language to others. It is essential that you are able to build a great rapport with children both in and out of the classroom setting.

It is essential that campers make real, measurable progress from their course, particularly in areas of confidence in practical usage.

Language Teachers are usually university graduates teaching their native language.
