Home - Job Description - Special Events

Kid Castle branches organize events from time to time throughout the year in which students take part, from Christmas and Halloween pageants to speech competitions, graduation ceremonies and so forth.

Foreign Teachers are asked to be involved with these events, both in their preparation and participation. Preparation typically involves decorating the school or designing activities relating to the event. Participation involves going along and having fun!

Typically, these events are special occasions for students and by attending, foreign teachers can take part in a unique experience that is not afforded by the regular teaching schedule.

Kid Castle preschools organize fieldtrips or outings during the semester. Foreign teachers help chaperone and more importantly, take the opportunity to make some real conversation with the students. Check the picture taken during a fieldtrip to the zoo on the left.

There will be times when the branch will ask the teacher to do a "demo" lesson or "open house". These typically fall within normal working hours, but if not, they will be paid extra.

There may also be times when the teacher is asked if they would like to help out at other events such as company promotions and demos for new schools. These events (which are voluntary) also provide the teacher with extra income.
