Mother Tongue Teacher in Haninge

Do you have ideas for the future and are you driven by challenges? In Haninge, you will develop alongside supportive colleagues who want to make a difference today. Right now, one of the most ambitious transformation efforts in our municipality's history is underway. We are building a new city, about 20 minutes from Söder. Join us on our journey.

Description

You will teach in the mother tongue. In the teaching, students will encounter and gain knowledge about fiction, other aesthetic storytelling, and various forms of non-fiction in their mother tongue. This will provide students with the opportunity to develop their language, identity, and understanding of the world around them. The teaching will also contribute to students developing knowledge about how to formulate their own opinions and thoughts in different types of texts. They will also be encouraged to express themselves through other aesthetic forms of expression. The teaching should provide students with the conditions to develop their cultural identity and become multilingual. Therefore, through teaching, students should be given opportunities to develop their knowledge about cultures and societies where the mother tongue is spoken. The teaching should also contribute to students developing a comparative approach to cultures and languages.

Study guidance in the mother tongue is a support measure available in primary schools and equivalent school forms as well as in upper secondary schools and special upper secondary schools. It is the school's mission to organize teaching for students with a different mother tongue so that they are given the conditions to develop knowledge in all school subjects while learning the Swedish language. One way to meet that need is to provide the student with study guidance in their mother tongue.

We are looking for someone who easily creates good relationships and is communicative. You need to have good language skills in both Swedish and the mother tongue. You should be collaborative, curious, and eager to develop and grow.

Our core mission is based on the Education Act, which states that education within the school system aims for students to acquire and develop knowledge and values. It should promote all students' development and learning as well as a lifelong desire to learn. Education should convey and anchor respect for human rights and the fundamental democratic values upon which Swedish society rests. Everyone working in schools should also promote respect for every person's intrinsic value and respect for our shared environment. The inviolability of human life, individual freedom and integrity, the equal value of all people, gender equality between women and men, and solidarity among people are the values that schools should embody and convey. Education in schools should be non-confessional.

Working as a mother tongue teacher requires a strong ability to take initiative. In your professional role, you depend on good relationships with mentors in schools, colleagues, guardians, and students.
