Lecturer in English

Would you like to use your expertise in the English culture and language and contribute to the development of our students?

Hospitality is people work and therefore communication in foreign culture and languages are important in our programme. The world is our playing-field, as hospitality takes place on a global scale. Professional communication is key to getting things done. As a lecturer in English, you guide our students in developing professional use of this language in a variety of ways. It is about the spoken and written use of English, but also about writing structured reports, record keeping and a proper look and feel of culture. You inspire students to apply what they have learned. This way, they develop into much sought-after professionals and we give shape to our motto 'the next step in hospitality'.
