HOW TO GET TEACHING JOB IN ARCHITECTURE

You will obviously need a portfolio when you are applying for teaching positions. But here you will need to show not only your own design work, but also your written work, including published essays or projects.

Preparing a portfolio for getting a teaching job is a big job, as there are significant differences between expectations in different countries and at different levels of teaching. There are very specific things that a school will be looking to find in your portfolio depending on what type of position you are seeking, which will have a major impact on its organization, and on the way that you organize your CV.

Teaching positions are hard to get, and therefore you will be facing stiff competition. Make sure that your portfolio reflects the requirements of the position that is advertised, but sending a portfolio to the head or director of the school can sometimes help you obtain a part-time or adjacent teaching position without a position being advertised. If you have been a teaching assistant, you might want to include copies of your syllabus and work produced by your best students.
