Job Description:
Oakton is looking for qualified part-time French substitute faculty beginning with the Summer 2010 semester for Beginning French, Intermediate French, Conversational French, French Composition, and Introduction to French Literature.  
 
Part-time faculty are paid on a lecture hour equivalents (LHE) basis. For most courses, the LHE is the same as a credit hour. For others, the LHE represents additional work for teaching the class, such as grading papers for Composition classes or teaching a class with a laboratory section (computers, languages, and the sciences); in those cases, the LHE represents a figure higher than the credit hour. All part-time faculty start at the beginning pay rates, regardless of the level and type of experience obtained elsewhere. Those rates are $825/LHE for those without doctorates and $855/LHE for those with doctorates.  
 
Part-time faculty advance one step within the salary schedule with the successful completion of 2 fall & spring semesters where 3+ credit hours are taught in each semester.

Requirements:
A master's degree in French or a related field and near-native fluency in French is required. Preferred qualifications include prior college teaching experience and qualifications to teach in a second language.


Additional Information:

Part-time faculty hires and assignments are coordinated by the department chairs. Contact Marguerite Solari at 847.376.7012 or solari@oakton.edu for more information.  
 
Part-time faculty are hired on a semester-by-semester basis. A reasonable effort is made to assure the assignment of courses to more senior part-time faculty who are fully qualified by virtue of their education, training, work experience as related to current technology and pedagogical techniques, and who have had a history of successful performance at Oakton Community College.  
 
All assignments are conditioned on sufficient enrollment. Once a course starts, the part time faculty member is expected to complete the course.


Application Instructions:

Required documents for a complete application file include an application, cover letter, resume/cv, official transcripts for the hiring credential, and 2 original, signed recommendation letters or college placement/credential file. Interested applicants must submit their application, cover letter and resume/cv on the Oakton website. Please indicate the position code (PTFRE-10) on the cover letter. Electronic submissions of transcripts and letters of recommendation to ahrndt@oakton.edu are acceptable. Official transcripts and original letters of recommendation or placement/credential file should be mailed to: Faculty Search PTFRE-10, c/o Department of Human Resources, Oakton Community College, 1600 E. Golf Rd., Des Plaines, IL 60016. Please contact Craig Ahrndt at ahrndt@oakton.edu if you have any questions or experience problems in submitting your application.
