Job Description
A lot of our students have a B1/B2/intermediate level of spoken English. However, depending on the classes, some students are A1/A2/beginner and other students are C1/C2/advanced. The proficiency of the students is hence extremely varied and depends on the class/degree.
Adaptability is key: the position requires independent lesson planning as well as working with the team of lecteurs and colleagues from the Department.


Principal Tasks
*TEACHING
English classes for a total of about 13 hours per week, 300 hours TP per annum - equivalent to 200 hours TD (please note that a TP counts as 1,5 TD since a TP is half a class) with possibilities of being paid extra hours. Mostly oral expression classes + Marking and administrative follow-up work
* OUTSIDE TEACHING HOURS
- Keeping office hours in the Lecteurs' Room:
The lecteurs' room is open to students from 1:00 to 2:00pm Mon-Fri. Students are actively encouraged by the lecteur team to come and practice their language skills outside of a classroom context.
- Organising events/activities:
'English Nights' in town in Valenciennes, trivia night, book club, board games.
- Organising the annual student trip to the UK, usually scheduled at the end of April/May, with about 50 students.
- Taking part in welcoming prospective students and their parents at the annual Open Day, usually in January

Support and Staff
A designated member of staff will be there to assist and advise as soon as you have been selected (May-June) and appointed (September 1st).
Usually a/or several lecteurs stay on for a second year, so you can rely on them for advice on teaching and settling in.

Advantages and Opportunities

o Opportunity to meet people from different cultures and backgrounds. There will be 5 English-speaking lecteurs in total as well as lecteurs from Spain, South America and Germany.
o Opportunity to sign up for free French courses (up to B1/B2 level) at the university to improve your language skills.
o Weekends (Sat-Sun) and vacations, allowing for plenty of opportunity to travel: Valenciennes is close to Belgium, ideally situated 40 minutes by train from Lille, the 'capital' of Northern France, and Paris (2-hour journey).
o Lille Metropolis is at the crossroad of a
