Job Description

POSITION OVERVIEW

We are looking for a Tamil Language Teacher who brings both scholarly grounding and genuine love for the language. This person will teach Tamil as a first or second language across pre-primary and primary classes, meeting the requirements of the ICSE board while bringing the warmth, creativity, and rhythm of a Waldorf-inspired approach to every lesson.

This is a role for a teacher who understands that language is not just grammar and vocabulary — it is story, song, image, and identity. You will be teaching children who are at the most formative stage of their relationship with Tamil, and your teaching will shape how they carry the language for the rest of their lives.
