Who are we?
We are a premier, accredited Online Language School seeking to expand our team of Mandarin language instructors for the upcoming school year (2026-2027) to teach high school and middle school Mandarin courses online. Our students are typically between the ages of 12 and 18 years old and are mostly taking Mandarin to fulfill their high school World Language requirement. We offer Middle School and High School Levels 1-6+ of Mandarin, and conversational and test/prep courses.
Our curriculum is ACTFL-aligned, and we do not use a textbook to teach the language. Instead, we rely on ACTFL Can-Do Statements and real-world communication contexts to guide the lessons. Our syllabi are designed to accommodate a textbook-free context. We offer a Resource Library to guide instructors, but they are expected to create/usetheir own teaching materials. We follow Project-Based Learning and don’t assess using quizzes, tests, or exams.
If you are creative, familiar with online teaching, student-centered, and enjoy teaching Mandarin as a World Language, you will fit right in!
