Teaching Assistant (Communities & Engagement)

In partnership with government agencies, the National University of Singapore has successfully pioneered the pilot phase of the Communities & Engagement (C&E) Pillar that provides meaningful service-learning for students and transformational impact for partners. Now, in collaboration with the Department of Social Work, the Provost Office intends to expand this programme and hire several additional course instructors. Their roles and responsibilities include:

1. To deliver and drive outcomes for students through the preparation of course materials; conduct of tutorials, workshops and/or consultations; and assessment of the quality of students’ academic and service work.
2. To deliver and drive outcomes for society through the management and coordination of volunteer service programmes with government agencies and community partners, including placement and induction training of students.
3. To build, sustain and strengthen relationships with agencies and community partners.
4. To supervise and support students throughout the period of their service-learning.
