Job Description

Exceptional educators have a winning combination of in-depth subject knowledge and an inimitable ability to communicate with young learners. We're dedicated to working with teachers who marry expert knowledge of IB & MYP syllabi with a dynamism and energy that results in an engaging, inspiring learning journey.

At Lanterna, we work with IBDP & MYP schools around the world who are suffering from teacher supply gaps, and with individual IB students who need extra support to reach their potential. We want you to come and work with us to deliver engaging, technically-excellent lessons to learners around the world — from Okinawa to Oslo, London to Lisbon, in an online capacity.

Apply once and let us know which you are interested in: substitute teaching, tutoring, or both:

• Online Substitute Teaching: Deliver synchronous lessons to schools around the world, for anything from one week to a full school year. Perfect for teachers without a full timetable, or those looking to supplement their in-school work in the evenings or weekends.

• 1:1 Tutoring: You will work 1-on-1 with IB students online, supporting them across their IB journey. This means preparing sessions, building teaching plans tailored to each student's needs, running lessons, setting homework, giving feedback, and helping your student finish their course with more knowledge and confidence.

What we're looking for

• In-depth subject knowledge of IB MYP and/or IBDP syllabi, kept up to date with the latest curriculum changes

• A current or recent IB teacher, and/or IB Examiner

• Excellent communication skills with young learners

• You have your own reliable setup, laptop, microphone, and a stable internet connection

• Comfort with (or willingness to learn) digital teaching tools and delivering synchronous online lessons

• Willingness to undergo safeguarding and background checks

Pay

Pay varies depending on the type of work and school contract:

• Substitute teaching: £40/hour per live teaching hour

• Tutoring as an IB teacher: £27/hour

• Tutoring as an IB teacher with IB Examiner experience: £35/hour

Safeguarding

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people, and expect all staff to share this commitment. All appointments are subject to rigorous safer recruitment procedures, including enhanced criminal background checks, identity verification, and child-safeguarding screening appropriate to the country of residence and work.
