Language is more than grammar and vocabulary—it’s a bridge to the world, a tool for expression, and a pathway to confidence. At TongXin Waldorf School, we are looking for a dedicated Cambridge IGCSE ESL Teacher who is passionate about helping students become capable, curious, and confident communicators—both in and beyond the exam room.

This is a unique role that blends rigorous exam preparation with Waldorf-inspired teaching . You’ll be preparing students for the full IGCSE English as a Second Language (ESL) exam—reading, writing, listening, and speaking—while also using storytelling, nature-based experiences, and student-led learning to bring English alive.

We welcome both full-time and part-time applicants.

You don’t need experience with holistic Waldorf education—just a passion for teaching and an open mind . Here, you’ll have the freedom to move beyond rote learning, using creative writing, drama and real-world experiences to make English lived. Training & peer support provided.

• Balance Exams with Exploration – Prepare students for IGCSE success, while allowing for expression, project-based work, and real-world application
• Incorporate Waldorf-Inspired Methods - Use storytelling, nature, seasonal rhythms, and hands-on activities to make English meaningful and memorable.
• Work in Small Classes – With 10-15 students per class, you’ll have the space to personalise learning and build strong student relationships.
• Build Strong Foundations – Identify and support language gaps, especially for learners who are new to English or lack confidence.
• Collaborate Across Subjects – Collaborate with other subject teachers to design cross-curricular projects that deepen understanding and student agency.
• Foster Independent Learners – Encourage critical thinking, self-expression, and ownership of learning as students prepare for post-secondary pathways.
• Be Part of a Thriving School Community – Join a supportive, engaged team where teachers, students, and parents learn and grow together.

• A qualified English or ESL teacher with a strong grasp of the Cambridge IGCSE ESL curriculum.
• 2+ years of Cambridge IGCSE ESL teaching experience , including exam preparation.
• Someone who sees language as more than an exam—it’s a way to connect, express, and explore the world.
• A clear and engaging communicator who can inspire both native and EAL learners.
• Someone who balances structure and flexibility —committed to student outcomes but open to creative, student-centered approaches.
• A team player and community-minded educator who thrives in a collaborative school environment.

• Bachelor’s degree in English, Education, or related field
• Recognised teaching qualification (e.g., PGCE, B.Ed.)
• Experience with project-based or interdisciplinary teaching
• Experience in a Waldorf, nature-based, or alternative education setting (a plus!)

TongXin Waldorf School is a warm, community-driven learning space where both teachers and students are invited to grow. You’ll be part of a team that values reflection, creativity, and connection—and be given the freedom to teach in ways that spark genuine learning.

Apply today, and help shape confident communicators through the power of language and imagination.
