# Music Teacher – Immediate Start – GEMS Education

Dubai American Academy, GEMS Education’s flagship American curriculum school, is hiring a Music Teacher for an immediate start. The role covers planning and delivering music lessons across the relevant age groups, building students’ practical musicianship, theory understanding, and performance confidence, alongside the department’s wider programme of ensembles, concerts, and performance opportunities that a well-resourced American curriculum school typically runs.

Beyond lesson delivery, the role includes the usual responsibilities of a specialist teacher at a large school: assessing and tracking student progress, contributing to extracurricular music activities and school performances, and working within DAA’s broader arts programme alongside colleagues across other creative subjects. An immediate start means stepping into an existing programme and team quickly, which suits someone who settles in fast and can pick up established routines without a long ramp-up.

This suits a qualified, experienced music teacher — instrumental, vocal, or general classroom music depending on the specific need — who enjoys working within an American curriculum framework and wants to teach at a school with an established reputation and genuine investment in the arts.

## Requirements

- Recognised teaching qualification with a specialism in music education

- Classroom experience teaching music within an American curriculum or comparable international framework

- Practical musicianship — instrumental or vocal proficiency relevant to the programme

- Experience running or contributing to school ensembles, performances, or concerts

- Ability to start quickly and integrate into an existing department and programme

- Strong classroom management and clear communication with students and parents
