Discover BASIS Bilingual School Guangming Shenzhen

BASIS Bilingual School Guangming Shenzhen, our fourth bilingual campus, opened its doors in Fall 2024 in the vibrant Guangming District of Shenzhen, China. This district offers a unique blend of cultural diversity and modernity, making it an ideal place for educators who want to make a meaningful impact. With state-of-the-art facilities, a supportive community, and the opportunity to immerse yourself in the rich culture of China, teaching at Guangming is more than just a job—it’s a transformative experience.

Our Primary School teachers adopt a collaborative, co-teaching approach to enhance student engagement and learning opportunities. The Subject Expert Teacher (SET) assumes the lead in delivering engaging, subject-specific learning experiences, while the Learning Enhancement Teacher (LET) ensures individual student understanding. Together, you cultivate a joyful and rigorous learning culture that celebrates hard work and where intellectual pursuit leads to exceptional student outcomes.  

As a Humanities Subject Expert Teacher, you establish a strong foundation of language and social science skills and knowledge. This includes Language Arts topics including beginnings of reading and writing, reading comprehension, writing process, and much more. Humanities topics include world history, American history, and beginnings of geographic awareness. You also collaborate with fellow teachers to tie in lessons with what students are learning in other subjects, such as music and art.
