Singapore SINGAPORE AMERICAN SCHOOL LIMITED Full time
SECONDARY WORLD LANGUAGE (CHINESE) TEACHER

Our vision at SAS explains why we exist. We aspire to be a world leader in education, cultivating exceptional thinkers prepared for the future.

We are committed to our mission that has been at the heart of our 65-year history: to provide each student an exemplary American educational experience with an international perspective.


If there is one thing we know about the future, it is that our students will graduate into a rapidly changing, increasingly global world where their success will depend to a large degree on their ability to learn new skills, take on new challenges, and work with a diverse range of people.

We aim to build a strong sense of joy and purpose in learning among our students to enable them to do so.


We know that our students' future success will depend on their ability to develop skills such as critical thinking, creativity, and cultural competence.

And, it will depend on the quality of the moral character they develop. We seek to personalize learning for every child to meet their unique learning needs. We know that supporting them in their social-emotional growth is as important as their academic growth.

And, we seek to stimulate that growth in a community as rich in equity and inclusion as it is in the extraordinary diversity of our students.

Our ability to attract, retain, and develop diverse talented educators, working collaboratively in teams, is vital to our success.
