Employment

We thank you for your interest in The American School of Doha. We are proud of our school and what our educational program offers to students. Every overseas school is unique and ours is no exception.

Applications from qualified teachers are accepted at any time, but non-local applications are best made between September and December. Preference is given to those with advanced degrees, at least two years of experience in an accredited elementary or secondary school, and experience (and certification) in teaching the specific subject area for which they are applying.

All applicants must submit a cover letter, resume, and list of references to: Deborah Welch, Director

In assessing teacher qualifications for potential employment at our school the following criteria are considered:

1) All candidates must have an undergraduate degree. Transcripts are reviewed for breadth and depth of courses taken, as well as scholarship. The following academic training is preferred:

Elementary School - A teaching degree with a breadth of knowledge across all subject areas and either early childhood or elementary education certification.
Middle School - Dual majors in two middle school subject areas or a major with strong minor. Certification desirable.

High School - A major with breadth and depth in subject to be taught. A postgraduate degree in subject area preferred. Training in a second discipline will be highly regarded.

2) Personal interviews are required and are generally conducted in the United States and other international recruitment fair locations by recruiters in late January and most of February. Please bring resumes and a recent photograph to your interview.
