To Apply:

Please submit a RESUME and COVER LETTER in relation to the specifics of our program and student population. All applicants follow the same process for recruitment, which begins with an initial phone interview, followed by a video conference interview with the Head of School. If both parties are interested, the final step is an in-person Demo Lesson and group debrief. The last step before fully executing an employment agreement is to check three supervisory references. At Lang, we appreciate that people's professional paths aren't necessarily linear and that they can be punctuated by purposeful gaps.
