Brighton, United Kingdom Kaplan International Full time

**Sessional Tutor (English Language and Academic Skills)**

**Hourly rate/s: Teaching: £31.65** **Learning Support: £18.26**

**As a Sessional Tutor (English and Academic Skills) at UBIC (University of Brighton International College), you will play a crucial role in planning, preparing, and delivering engaging learning experiences to our diverse student community.**

**Our approach to teaching**:
At the heart of our educational approach is a belief in supporting students to become independent, motivated learners who will thrive in higher education. To do this, we recognise the need to provide a flexible, responsive experience which meets needs of learners who differ in background, requirements and pace.

Our classrooms are active learning spaces and lessons are primarily student-centred. By introducing students to material before class, we use classroom time for discussion, real-world problem solving and project work, with a strong emphasis on group work and pair work. Technology is embedded into our approach - both physically within each classroom as well as within each curriculum area - from use of engaging multimedia study materials to convey concepts through to online testing in class which allows us assess students’ understanding in ‘real time’. Providing an individualised, differentiated learning experience is also a key strand in our approach. Students are involved in shaping their programme so that they specialise in their area of interest according to their strengths and intended progression route and get the chance to undertake projects personalised to their interest and path.

For many - tutors and students alike - this is a very different model for learning but one which results in highly engaged students who take responsibility for their academic success.

Our students learn in a wide variety of ways, enabling them to develop the behaviours and skills needed for university in the UK. As students move through their programme, teachers will be directing, guiding and supporting them in different ways at different times. The focus will be for students to participate in:

- A range of learning activities including - active learning, workshops, laboratory sessions, online support through the VLE, project-focussed and other Life and Study Skills tasks as well as more traditional lectures and seminars
- Assessment to receive feedback on their work so they may improve, and to arrive at their summative marks. Some assessment will be digital, some non-digital; projects, group and individual assignments will all feature.
- Activities with Learning Advisors, including reviewing progress, ensuring VLE engagement, quality and being taking up support/intervention/stretching activities so they can achieve their potential. Students may also be signposted to other non-academic support as needed.
- Work to support the development of their e-Portfolio
