About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

The chief duty of the Writing Instructor for the RWE program is to support students wishing to expand their active vocabulary, increase their academic language competence and confidence, and develop critical reading, thinking and writing skills over a sustained period.
The instructor’s responses model a rich spectrum of language usage and good academic integrity practices.
The writing instructor will hold 30-minute in-person meetings every two weeks (or weekly, where needed in individual cases) and provide personalized feedback and guidance to student posts on Quercus.
Instructors are responsible for encouraging their students to keep up with the daily reading and writing routine of the program and nurturing students’ academic writing ability.
Instructors will guide students in the development of academic vocabulary and academic writing style using relevant academic resources.
RWE Writing Instructors may also be required to develop pedagogical materials related to critical reading, academic writing, and language development; participate in compensated professional development relevant to inter-cultural exchange; and provide feedback to the program coordinator via semi-regular meetings.
Where there is a greater need to support students’ reading and writing development in the context of their courses, the RWE writing instructor’s time may be reallocated to serve this purpose.
Should student participation in the program be lower than expected, the RWE instructor may be assigned to provide contributions and feedback to the RWE resources and instructor guiding manual.
Where necessary, the RWE Writing Instructor will receive training and assigned to conduct a limited number of ELD consultations or drop-in sessions.
The one-on-one meetings with students are expected to be physically in person on campus, unless students inform the RWE administrator that they need their appointments online.
In between the in-person appointments, writing instruction will be conducted online.
When circumstances make remote one-on-one meetings necessary, instructors should have access to a stable, high-speed internet line, a computer with a working webcam and microphone and a quiet workspace.
