Position Overview
Concorde Education is seeking an engaging, student-centered French Instructor to facilitate a short-format after-school enrichment course for students (grade band varies by assignment). This course introduces learners to foundational French language skills and cultural knowledge through interactive, communication-focused instruction. Lessons emphasize speaking and listening practice, high-frequency vocabulary, basic grammar structures, and confidence-building activities aligned with student readiness.

Instruction should be age-appropriate and classroom-friendly, with an emphasis on inclusive participation and practical language use. The instructor will deliver instruction across a typical 10-week cycle, with pacing adapted to student needs and site logistics.

 

What You Will Teach
Students will learn introductory French communication skills, including greetings, self-introductions, common questions and responses, numbers, dates and time, classroom phrases, and everyday vocabulary. Students will also explore Francophone culture through accessible topics such as traditions, food, music, geography, and daily life, with activities that encourage cultural curiosity and respectful discussion.

 

Major Topics Can Include

  • Pronunciation basics and common sound patterns (intro level)
  • Greetings, introductions, and polite expressions
  • Numbers, dates, time, and calendars
  • High-frequency vocabulary (school, family, hobbies, food, places)
  • Everyday conversational routines (asking/answering simple questions)
  • Basic grammar structures (subject pronouns, common verbs, simple sentence patterns)
  • Listening and speaking practice through games, role-plays, and short dialogues
  • Reading and writing basics (labels, short sentences, simple paragraphs as appropriate)
  • Francophone cultures and geography (France and other French-speaking regions)
  • Cultural connections through music, art, traditions, and food (site-appropriate exploration)

Key Responsibilities

  • Deliver a 10-session course with clear objectives and engaging, interactive instruction
  • Use routines and activities that prioritize student speaking and listening practice
  • Differentiate instruction to support varying levels of experience and language confidence
  • Maintain a safe, inclusive learning environment aligned with site policies and expectations
  • Communicate professionally with site staff and Concorde program contacts regarding attendance and session completion tracking
  • Adapt pacing and activities as needed while maintaining intended course outcomes
  • Support students in completing a culminating artifact demonstrating language growth and cultural learning

Qualifications (Required)

  • Minimum of 60 college credits (or Associate degree in progress/completed)
  • Proficiency in French sufficient to teach foundational language skills and model pronunciation
  • Experience working with school-age students in structured settings (school, camp, after-school, tutoring, youth programs)
  • Strong facilitation skills, clear communication, and comfort leading interactive language practice
  • Reliable, punctual, and professional; able to follow school policies and program boundaries
  • Ability to create engaging, age-appropriate activities that build confidence and participation
