Job description

The Opportunity:

Blyth Academy is seeking dynamic and committed Junior/Intermediate French teacher to teach the Ontario Secondary School curriculum at our Downsview Park campus part time.

While the majority of our teachers have OCT certification, we welcome qualified educators from all sectors and professional backgrounds to apply.

About Blyth Academy:

Blyth Academy is the largest private school by enrollment in Ontario, with campuses across the province. Blyth Academy offers students, grades 5-12, a comprehensive full-time program, as well as part-time, private, semi-private, night & weekend, summer school, and online courses.

Our primary focus is to enhance academic achievement to prepare all students for university and beyond. Here at Blyth Academy, we tailor the curriculum to the individual student, not the other way around. By taking into account each student’s learning style and extra-curricular responsibilities, we are able to customize a plan unique to the individual.

Blyth Academy follows the curriculum expectations set out by the Ontario Ministry of Education. From this academic base, we integrate student interests, experiential hands‑on learning activities within and beyond our walls, and an empathetic approach to teaching and learning. We have developed a strategy for incorporating literacy and numeracy across the curriculum in an effort to support the provincial mandate to improve student achievement in these essential skills. We incorporate research and evidence-based inquiry and decision‑making approaches in the classroom that will support students’ success in both of these critical areas.

About the Role:

• Small classrooms with an average of 8 students: enhanced student engagement & interactions; less administrative work (i.e. report cards, marking)


• Academic calendar: 4 terms from September - June; 9am to 12pm or half a year 8:30am to 3pm


• Educate students focused on academic success and with strong parental support


• Autonomy for your individual teaching structure and style


• Supportive colleagues and leadership


• Boutique campuses each with a unique building, atmosphere & learning environment

About you:

• Subject matter expertise and teaching experience


• Empathetic and dedicated to students’ learning, growth and development


• Commitment to engage, challenge and inspire young learners


• Able to effectively manage and foster a positive learning environment


• Openness to differentiated learning approaches


• Excellent verbal and written communication


• Flexibility, accountability and integrity
