(click on the image to view)

 

TLC Home and ONLINE entry level Teachers can teach anywhere from 5 to 15 hours a week depending on their teaching experience, their availabilities, as well as their ability to handle the preparation. An average schedule for a TLC teacher would be to teach around 12 hours a week during the academic year. In France students are always off two weeks for the Toussaint break (end of October first week in November), two weeks at Christmas, two weeks end of February for winter break and two weeks around Easter. Here is the academic calendar for 2021-2022.

 

TLC Home teachers’ schedules are arranged around the travel distances between the classes. This means that teachers may be teaching a variety of CEFR levels but have less than 15 minutes to travel on average between each class.

TLC Home Online teachers’ schedules are arranged around CEFR levels and most teachers are teaching 1 or 2 levels so they can understand and master how one level feeds into the other.

TLC SCHOOL teachers are expected to work every day from 13:00 to 19:00 outside of school holidays (presently not hiring)
