Summer Teaching Positions in Russian
Beloit College
June 10 - August 7, 2009

Senior instructors and graduate teaching assistants are needed for Beloit
College¹s summer intensive Russian language program (June 10 - August 7,
2009).  In 2009, we expect to offer first- through fourth-year Russian. Each
level, with enrollments of ten students, has one instructor and one graduate
teaching assistant.  Instructors collaborate with each other, the language
coordinator, and the CLS director on curriculum, syllabi, and instruction.
Duties include classroom teaching and evaluation, and assistance with
organizing cultural activities for the program. Instructors will be expected
to live on campus (single occupancy), share lunch and dinner with the
students in the dining commons, and be available to students evenings and
weekends. 

Minimum qualifications for senior instructors include an M.A., teaching
experience preferably in an immersion environment, native or near-native
proficiency in Russian, and advanced proficiency in English. An advanced
degree in Russian, applied linguistics, or foreign language education is
desirable.  For graduate teaching assistants, an M.A. in progress is
required.  Salary is competitive, and includes room and board. Employment is
contingent upon new employees providing documents verifying U.S. citizenship
or, for non-citizens, documents verifying legal permission to work in the
United States.
