Beloit College: Summer Teaching Positions in Russian

Senior instructors and graduate teaching assistants are needed for Beloit
College¹s summer intensive Russian language program (June 9 - August 6,
2010).  In 2010, we expect to offer first- through fourth-year Russian. Each
level, with maximum enrollments of twelve 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.

Send letter of application, curriculum vitae, and three letters of
recommendation to Patricia L. Zody, Center for Language Studies, Beloit
College, 700 College Street, Beloit WI 53511.  Applications will not be
