Job Description

Position Title: English Teacher 

Start Date : August 2026

Contract type: Yearly; 10-month 

School Type: Boarding 

Inspire a love of language and guide students to discover the power of stories, ideas, and their own voices.

Why Join Us

At St. Mark's, we believe powerful stories and compelling writing transform minds and communities. We're seeking an English teacher who is as passionate about literature as they are about mentoring young writers, guiding spirited discussions, and helping students find their voices. Teaching here is more than what happens in the classroom. As a faculty member, you'll also serve as an advisor, coach, and mentor, helping students navigate school, discover new talents, and grow into their best selves. Our community thrives on collaboration and connection, and we're looking for educators who are excited to engage fully in all aspects of residential school life.

What You'll Do

You'll be a teacher, mentor, and co-creator of learning. Your role will include:

  • Teaching four sections of English across grades 9 through 12 (with flexibility in course design)

  • Advising a small group of students and fostering their growth—academically and personally

  • Giving meaningful, timely feedback that challenges and inspires

  • Collaborating with department colleagues on curriculum innovation

  • Engaging fully in community life: coaching, supervising residential evenings, participating in Saturday classes or programs, and more

What We're Looking For

  • A bachelor's degree in English, Literature, Writing, Education, or related field

  • At least some experience teaching at the secondary level (2+ years preferred)

  • Ability to connect with diverse learners and teach inclusively

  • A commitment to community, mentoring, and the full life of a residential school

  • Strong communication, organization, and collaboration skills

  • Comfort with educational tech tools (Google Suite, etc.)

Why You'll Love It Here

  • A warm, close-knit community of students and colleagues

  • Generous benefits: housing, meals, health coverage, tuition remission

  • Access to campus facilities, from the fitness center to nature trails

  • A chance to design, experiment, and grow professionally

  • Daily opportunities to make a difference both inside and outside the classroom

Salary Range: $40,000 – $80,000. Pay is commensurate with experience.
