The Moscow Lycee "Stupeni" would like to announce the availability of
a position for a native speaker of English for the upcoming
(2001-2002) school year and to extend an invitation for applications.

The Lycee, a private institution founded in 1990, provides comprehensive
education with a Humanities focus for students from the first through the
eleventh grades (ages 7-17). Class sizes are limited to no more than ten
to twelve students, facilitating close teacher-student relationships and
individually tailored academic programs.

The school offers in-depth study of the English language,
supplemented by literature and audio and video materials. The
academic load for the American teacher ranges from twenty to
twenty-four hours per week. The salary for one forty-minute class
period is $7.50 (US dollars). Hourly remuneration covers actual
classroom teaching. In addition to time spent in class, the
teacher's duties include the preparation and/or revision of classroom
handouts on the computer, which is paid at a rate of $6 per hour.
Other special teaching-related tasks may include the transcription of
videotapes ($100 per three-hour cassette).

The Lycee's academic calendar runs from September 1st to June 15th,
with a week of vacation every sixth week. Teachers are not paid for
these vacations. Contracts are for one year (with possible renewal).

During the time of his/her employment the teacher will be provided
with an apartment in Moscow, paid for by the Lycee, located no more
than sixty minutes away from the school. Transportaions to and from
the school will be paid for by the Lycee. The teacher will be
responsible for the costs of electricity and telephone calls.

All costs for visa support in Russia, processing at immigration
services, registration, and medical insurance will be covered by the
school. The teacher will be responsible for transportation to and
from Russia, as well as for cost incurred to obtain the Russian visa
in the U.S.

The Lycee has a very successful record of working with American
teachers, and would like to carry on the tradition of inviting native
speakers of English to work with its students. Your Russian
colleagues therefore warmly invite you to join them in a friendly and
cultured atmosphere. Interested parties should send (by fax or email)
a resume, a copy of their degree (if applicable), two letters of
recommendation, and a brief letter explaining the reasons they would
like to work at our school by March 1 to:

Marina Mikhailovna Kononova
