Join Our Team! Albanian College Tirana is looking to connect with open-minded professionals from diverse backgrounds and experiences.

Albanian College is an IB World School offering the PYP, MYP and IB Diploma Programmes. At AC you will find enthusiastic staff and faculty members who committed to serving the needs of students and parents within our community. These educators are supportive of the school's Mission and Values as well as the pedagogical philosophy of the International Baccalaureate Organisation.

 

At AC, our IB curriculum is built upon the principles of transdisciplinarity and collaboration, as we aim to design and implement a holistic model of education. This model intends to inspire and empower our students through concept-based, inquiry-driven teaching and learning practices that transcend subject knowledge and equip our students with transferable skills that will allow them to become self-regulated, life-long learners.

 

We are looking for teachers from around the world that believe in:

 

  • The value of thorough planning as the basis for good practice

  • Inquiry and agency as the driving forces of students' learning

  • Conceptual understanding as the ultimate goal of the learning process

  • Teaching beyond the subjects

  • Assessment as a tool to empower students to become self-regulated learners through feedback and feedforward

  • Constant collaboration with colleagues in a respectful and positive environment that promotes empathy and compromise 

 

If you share our values and are willing to work hard within a thriving team, we'd love to hear from you.

 

To apply for a position, please send us an email to employment@actirana.edu.al , including your CV/resume and a cover letter in which you explain how your teaching would fit within the principles outlined in this post.

 

Albanian College has two schools, one located in Tirana, the capital of Albania, and a second one in the port city of Durres, about 30 minutes away from Tirana.

 

Albania is a great place to live with beautiful landscapes, delicious food, friendly people, and an ancient history that connects its culture to all kinds of traditions like the Illyrian, Greece, Rome, the Ottoman Empire or influences from the neighbouring Balkans. Tirana is a vibrant city with a love for street life, full of cafes and restaurants in a family-friendly environment. Durres is a seaside city with a more relaxed atmosphere. The city has impressive Roman ruins and numerous connections to the cultural heritage of Albania.
