Spanish/French Teacher

We are hiring an experienced world language teacher to teach both Spanish and French at our academic summer

program. Given the nature of our program, course sign-ups change each summer. However, we often have

enrollment for at least two sections of Spanish and at least one section of French.

Wolfeboro Camp School is a setting in which each teacher has a rewarding and exceptional professional

development experience. The School provides an exceedingly worthwhile experience for students and a

rewarding summer for our faculty. Teachers function predominately through the 1:00 pm meal, teaching and

providing extra help. Teachers do not reside on student residential campuses, and with the exception of meals in

the Jousson Dining Hall and one evening of study hall supervision per week, do not have formal residential

responsibilities.

Course Load and Teaching Philosophy

Teachers will generally teach four sections with four to five students per section. Every effort is made to

schedule a teacher with a maximum of twenty students and with no more than two preparations. Teachers are

expected to remain flexible with regard to specific courses and preparations.

By mission, Wolfeboro ensures academic progress for each student, and our teachers embrace this

obligation. Year after year, our teachers verify that Wolfeboro provides a stimulating professional environment

in which teaching skills always rise to the next level. Wolfeboro teachers exude an obvious enthusiasm for

organization, detail, responsibility, confidence and progress. Our collective passion for celebrating

accountability and daily success is a primary feature in each student’s Wolfeboro Experience. Professional

growth is enhanced by the inevitable sharing of ideas with more than 30 educators from as many independent

and public schools.

Teacher Reports

Each teacher prepares a brief internal written report on each student once per week. In addition, more

comprehensive written reports are prepared at the conclusion of the program. Your reports reflect Wolfeboro’s

reputation for teacher expertise, clarity and an emphasis on the positive.

Other Areas of Responsibility

Teachers supervise one evening study hall per week. With a partner faculty member, teachers also provide

coverage at a dining room table for all sit-down meals. Additionally, teachers are expected to chaperone students

to or from the airports on either Arrival or Departure Days.

• Experience teaching in independent boarding or day school preferred

Dates of employment for the summer 2025 session are June 22 – July 31.
