LCC University is a unique Christian liberal arts college located right on the Baltic Sea. Each year they hold a Summer Language Institute to teach high school students English to improve their educational opportunities. If you have a month that you would like to dedicate to students from over 50 different countries, and you are an English teacher, this opportunity is for you.
You will prepare English lessons, work cooperatively with other teachers, develop creative enrichment material to enhance the curriculum and spend 3 hours every day in the classroom. You will have plenty of time to get to know other teachers and students and explore this historical city and rugged beachfront.
You will receive orientation and will participate in staff meetings.
