You will teach Chinese language across the full spectrum, from beginner to advanced level, alongside Chinese cultural studies content delivered in English. You will contribute to the design, delivery, and assessment of a range of written and oral assignments, developing engaging and research-informed teaching materials that foster linguistic confidence, intercultural understanding, and critical thinking.

We are committed to creating a stimulating, supportive, and inclusive learning environment where staff and students can thrive.
