The Hun School of Princeton • Princeton, NJ

6d • Onsite

About The Position

The Hun School of Princeton seeks a dynamic, creative Part-Time Upper School History and Global Studies Teacher to teach Economics beginning in August 2026. History and Global Studies expose students to a broad framework of historic, geographic, social, and cultural perspectives, encompassing Western and non-Western experiences. The department presents history as a means of exploring vital questions of both historic and contemporary relevance. Students learn both independently and cooperatively, developing skills in problem-solving and decision-making. The ideal candidate will be able to make history come alive for our students, focusing more intently on skill development and learner engagement than on conferring information within the context of a curriculum that privileges interdisciplinary connections and student agency.
