Substitute Teacher in Swedish and English

Are you passionate about languages, learning, and engaging with young people? We are currently looking for a substitute teacher in Swedish and English for high school. An engaged educator who wants to make a difference in the classroom and contribute to students' development, both academically and personally.

About the Workplace

The schools of Helsingborg City are a resourceful and value-driven organization. Here, as an employee, you become an important part of our shared vision to create the best school for every child and student. With us, you work in a dedicated and supportive staff group with a strong culture of collaboration. Leadership is characterized by trust, clarity, and close dialogue. We believe in professional autonomy, shared responsibility, and continuous development.

Job Responsibilities

As a substitute teacher in Swedish and English, you will be responsible for planning, teaching, assessing, and following up on your courses, in close collaboration with colleagues in the subject team. You will meet students from different programs and with various backgrounds, which requires clear structure, relationship-building, and an inclusive approach. Mentorship is a particularly important part of the role with us. As a mentor, you play a central role in following the students' overall situation (studies, training, well-being, and balance in everyday life) and in supporting them in combining high school studies with an ambitious sports commitment. You collaborate with coaches, student health, and guardians to create good conditions for both performance and well-being.

What We Offer

We offer you a varied, responsible, and stimulating job with opportunities for personal development. The workplace is smoke-free and health-conscious.

Qualifications

You have a teaching degree with qualifications in Swedish and English for high school. You have experience teaching at the high school and/or middle school level, preferably across multiple programs. You have a good ability to plan, implement, and follow up on teaching with clear structure and variation. You are confident in assessment and feedback based on applicable governing documents. You easily build good relationships with students and colleagues. You enjoy the mentorship role and see the student's entire study situation, especially in the combination of studies and sports. You are flexible, solution-focused, and collaborative. Great emphasis is placed on personal suitability.
