About the job

 

Visiting Music Teacher (Oboe)

City of London School for Girls is seeking to appoint a well qualified and inspirational Teacher of Oboe, able to take on students from beginner level to post Grade 8 standard. The postholder will ideally have experience in both teaching (preferably of children) and performance. In the first instance, the post will involve around half a day of work per week (timings to be arranged by negotiation), though there is opportunity to grow the number of students, and therefore the hours worked.

Visiting Music teachers promote and deliver individual lessons and coach/direct ensembles as necessary as part of the Music Department. All VMTS are line managed by the Director of Music, assisted by the Head of Instrumental Studies, and staff work will be monitored by one of the two, on rotation, in any given academic year, to include lesson observation. Standards of teaching and learning are high, and staff are expected to have a growth mindset and be open to sharing and developing best practice as part of a team. The Music Department Co-ordinator works with the Director of Music to ensure the smooth running of the VMTs’ work at City, and is the first port of call
