About the role

We are seeking a Sessional Tutor on a fixed term basis for a group of highly motivated mature adult students, who have been attending this class for over 20 years. They are passionate about Italian culture and literature and have developed friendly relationships with one another, organising occasional trips to local museums to enrich their learning.

When it comes to languages, Morley College prides itself on its ability to deliver lessons in a fun and friendly classroom environment. Lessons are practical with plenty of opportunity for learners to practise their skills. Students are encouraged to work collaboratively and are helped to use technology as a learning tool, at the same time as maximising traditional (person-to-person) communication for a variety of contexts.
