2 Private Teacher Of Music Stellen gefunden

A full-time English-speaking post is available in our vibrant Music Department for a Teacher of Music. The ability to offer private instrumental lessons (preferably on piano but other instruments will be considered) is vital, and ensemble leadership skills would be valuable in both classical and popular music styles. Music technology skills would also be useful.  A working knowledge of French would be an advantage although this is not a requirement.

Background Information

The Music Department at Le Rosey consists of over 25 peripatetic teachers and 3 classroom teachers. The staff are international, and most are bilingual. The instrumental and vocal teachers may prepare students for ABRSM Exams and are involved in the preparation of numerous different concerts and events throughout the year. Music is studied up to IB in the classroom. At present, over 370 private instrumental/vocal lessons happen on a weekly basis and there are many musical ensembles including an orchestra, several choirs, a jazz band, a rock school, chamber music groups, guitar groups, Orff groups and a string ensemble. All secondary school students who take a private instrumental or vocal lesson are now required to participate in a music group/ensemble.

The Music Department facilities in the purpose-built Paul & Henri Carnal Hall are exceptional and students have regular opportunities to perform in student concerts and musicals in the Rosey Concert Hall housed in the same building. The Rosey Concert Hall https://www.roseyconcerthall.ch/ is also a public venue, welcoming musicians and orchestras of the highest calibre to perform for our school community as well as members of the public. Recent performances have included The Berlin Philharmonic and Pink Martini.

Music facilities are shared with the students and teachers of the International Menuhin Music Academy. Regular open string masterclasses with internationally renowned string soloists and chamber music specialists are held in the Rosey Concert Hall.

All students at Le Rosey benefit from class music lessons until the GCSE years when Music becomes optional. The Junior school students learn music using Edwin Gordon and Carl Orff pedagogy and attend weekly choir rehearsals. Although Le Rosey no longer presents students for GCSE, we consider our GCSE-based course as a good preparation for IB. IB Music classes are small, allowing excellent collaboration between teacher and students.

A teacher at Le Rosey must be willing and able to teach groups of mixed linguistic backgrounds including native English speakers. There are approximately 60 different nationalities amongst the pupils at Le Rosey and many do not have English as their mother tongue. The successful candidates should be able to offer a flexibility of approach and a willingness to understand the problems of non-native speakers of English.

At Le Rosey students and teachers come from all over the world, creating a vibrant and stimulating campus atmosphere. All students sit the IB diploma or French bac and there is a 100% pass rate. Salary scales are Le Rosey’s own and the conditions of work add considerably in kind to the salary.
