Teacher of the Deaf – Job Posting
The Calgary Board of Education currently has positions available for trained Teachers of the Deaf, commencing fall 2014 in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. These positions require applicants who possess a Master of Deaf Education or Doctor of Deaf Education degree, who are fluent in American Sign Language and English, and who demonstrate advanced skills in providing effective instruction to students who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing at the elementary (grades 1-6) and secondary (grades 7-12) levels. Applicants should have a track record of success and be able to support the current team in advancing forward into a new paradigm of Deaf Education which moves beyond a bilingual/bicultural approach into one which recognizes and supports the multiple facets of identity, culture, language, and learning that each student brings to the classroom.
