About This Role
This night-shift post on the cardiac ward pairs patient care with mentoring new nurses.
Responsibilities
- Design and deliver comprehensive science lessons aligned with curriculum standards, incorporating educational technology and IT-integrated teaching methods
- Develop and implement engaging lesson plans that accommodate different learning styles and promote active student participation
- Conduct laboratory experiments, dissections, and research activities in biology, chemistry, physics, and other scientific fields to enhance experiential learning
- Manage classroom behavior effectively while fostering a positive environment conducive to inquiry and scientific discovery
- Assess student progress through standardized testing, formative assessments, and project work; provide constructive feedback to support continuous improvement
- Collaborate with colleagues on curriculum development, instructional design, and teaching strategies to ensure consistency and quality across science courses
- Mentor students in scientific research projects, academic advising, and preparation for higher education or careers in STEM fields
- Integrate educational technology tools into lessons seamlessly while ensuring compliance with educational regulations and standards
- Support students from diverse cultural backgrounds by adapting teaching methods to meet various learning needs
- Participate in professional development opportunities focused on classroom management, research laboratory techniques, and innovative pedagogies
Requirements
- Proven experience teaching science at the middle or high school level with a strong record of classroom management and student engagement
- Demonstrated expertise in multiple scientific disciplines including biology (cell biology, genetics, microbiology), chemistry (organic chemistry), physics (geometry, trigonometry, calculus), and mathematics (algebra, discrete math)
- Hands-on laboratory experience involving dissections, microbiology techniques, molecular biology experiments, and research laboratory procedures
- Familiarity with curriculum development, implementation of IT-integrated lessons, standardized testing protocols, and educational compliance requirements
- Experience working with students from diverse cultural backgrounds and adapting instruction accordingly
- Strong communication skills for effective collaboration with colleagues, mentoring students, and engaging parents or guardians
- Knowledge of educational technology tools for science instruction including digital labs, simulation software, and library services supporting research activities
Nice to have:
- Background in higher education teaching or instructional design is advantageous but not mandatory; relevant private school or Montessori experience is a plus
