Experience in teaching high school students with a strong foundation in micro and macroeconomic theories is essential.
The Economics PGT position requires a postgraduate degree in Economics or a related discipline. A B.Ed or D.El.Ed qualification is mandatory, ensuring a solid pedagogical approach. While TET/CTET is not mandatory, prior teaching experience of at least two years will be considered a significant advantage. The ability to explain economic models, market dynamics, and policy frameworks in simple terms is crucial for student engagement.
Daily responsibilities include preparing lesson plans that incorporate current economic events, conducting assessments, and providing constructive feedback. The teacher will also guide students in research projects, case studies, and economic simulations to enhance their analytical skills. Collaboration with other subject teachers to integrate economics with social studies and business studies is expected.

Familiarity with the Tamil Nadu state board curriculum or CBSE guidelines will help in aligning lessons with school requirements. The teacher should also be able to explain economic principles in a culturally relevant context, considering the local economic landscape of Tamil Nadu.
The salary for this full-time PGT Economics Teacher position ranges between Rs.40,000 and Rs.75,000 per month, depending on experience and qualifications. The school offers a supportive work environment with opportunities for career growth. Benefits may include professional development allowances, performance-based increments, and access to training programs.
Candidates with a background in teaching economics at the high school level, particularly in competitive exam preparation or skill development programs, will be given preference.
