The Department of Luso-Hispanic Studies at Middlebury College is looking for a Teaching Assistant for the academic year 2024-2025. This is a multi-faceted position that combines organizational and extra-curricular responsibilities with the opportunity to undertake coursework at Middlebury College. The ideal candidate would be a Master’s student fluent in English and interested in language instruction. The successful candidate will receive full tuition for one course in each semester -- Fall and Spring, full room and board for the academic year, a stipend, the student health and dental insurance (subject to the regular deductibles), and the cost of airfare to and from Middlebury College.
Responsibilities: The Spanish T.A. will live in the Spanish-language house with students who have made a commitment to speak only Spanish. Furthermore, the TA will have lunch with students at the Spanish-language table and encourage at all times the use of Spanish by providing a linguistic model and by organizing cultural and recreational activities that will promote the Spanish language and Hispanic cultures. These activities could include—but are not limited to—movie & video showings, “cafecitos”, guest lectures, thematic dinners, parties, etc.
The Spanish T.A. will assist the faculty of the Spanish program by leading conversation sections for its intermediate course. Additionally, the TA might correct workbooks / quizzes, conduct exams or substitute classes during the Fall and Spring semesters for faculty away at conferences.
The Spanish T.A. should plan to be available on campus through the end of the examination period each semester (December 11-16, 2024 and May 15-20, 2025), and we would hope he or she would stay for the Commencement ceremonies on May 25, 2025.
Applicants should submit a current CV and a one-page cover letter to Elizabeth Kervick, the Luso-Hispanic Studies department coordinator before Monday, February 19 of 2024.
