Idea Source School based in Sihanoukville, Cambodia is seeking an enthusiastic, experienced primary school teacher to work full time with us beginning in January, 2014. The initial contract will be for 12 months but can be extended further upon successful completion.

There is a maximum of 29 classroom-teaching hours and the rest of the time is for office work and lesson planning.

The teacher hired must also be able to participate in and help plan the various yearly events (such as, Christmas presentation, English summer camp, field trips and international parties).
We would invite creative, imaginative, flexible, qualified and experienced elementary, primary and early years teachers who can expect international rates of pay.
The teachers’ main role is to plan lessons and develop schemes of work which show sympathy with the learning outcomes – documented in the curriculum – and, moreover, with the learned and natural abilities of individual students.
