Halifax, Canada Oxford International North America Full time

Oxford International Junior Programmes offers a range of summertime ESL programmes at carefully chosen centres in the UK, Canada, and the US. Our programmes aim to create a study experience of educational value, of cultural interest, and, of course, full of fun and memories to take home. Our Halifax in-house summer program, running 4th June - 12th August, is based at our Halifax campus at ECLC, where students receive a combination of 20 hours English language tuition per week and a comprehensive programme of activities and excursions. The activity programme will include daytime half-day activities mid-week as well as full-day excursions to attractions and places of cultural interest.

We are currently looking for staff for contracts of various length from late July to mid August.

The Activity Leader plays a key role in our Junior Programmes, and will lead groups of students on trips and activities in a safe, fun, and responsible manner.
