TGT Sanskrit Teacher Job in Kendujhar, Odisha
About This Role
St. Xavier High School in Keonjhar Sadar is looking for a dedicated TGT Sanskrit Teacher to join the vibrant student community in Kendujhar. The school serves a diverse group of learners from grades 6 to 10, many of whom come from families where Sanskrit is not commonly spoken at home. Your role will be to make the language accessible and engaging, helping students grasp foundational concepts and appreciate the cultural richness of Sanskrit literature and grammar.
Your Students
The students at St. Xavier High School in Kendujhar are curious and eager to learn, but they often find Sanskrit challenging due to its structure and vocabulary. Your challenge will be to simplify complex texts like the Ramayana and Mahabharata excerpts, while also preparing them for periodic assessments and board exams. Parent expectations are high, especially in Kendujhar’s competitive academic environment, so clear communication about student progress is essential.
What You Will Do
Plan and deliver structured Sanskrit lessons for grades 6 to 10, aligning with the Odisha Board syllabus and NCERT guidelines. Use storytelling, chhandas (meters), and simple shlokas to make grammar and literature lessons interactive and memorable for students.
Conduct regular assessments, including weekly tests and monthly unit tests, to track progress in vocabulary, grammar, and comprehension. Provide timely feedback to students and parents, especially during PTMs in Kendujhar’s local schools.
Organize Sanskrit-related activities such as elocution, shloka recitation, and essay writing competitions to foster interest in the language beyond the classroom. Collaborate with other TGT teachers at St. Xavier High School to integrate Sanskrit with subjects like Hindi and History where possible.
Prepare students for Sanskrit Olympiads and other inter-school competitions held in Odisha. Share success stories of past students from Kendujhar in similar events to motivate current learners.
Maintain accurate records of attendance, assignments, and test scores for each class. Submit these reports to the school office as required for academic audits.
Assist in organizing school functions where Sanskrit verses or dramas are performed, especially during Saraswati Puja or annual day celebrations at St. Xavier High School.
Eligibility
Postgraduate degree in Sanskrit with a minimum of 55% marks from a recognized Indian university. B.Ed or M.Ed in Sanskrit from a recognized institution. Three years of teaching experience in a secondary school, preferably in Odisha.
Skills We Value
Strong command over Sanskrit grammar, prosody (chhandas), and classical texts. Ability to teach Vyakaran (grammar) and Sahitya (literature) to middle and secondary school students effectively.
Experience in designing engaging lesson plans for students who struggle with Sanskrit due to language barriers. Familiarity with Odisha Board curriculum and periodic assessment patterns.
Excellent communication skills in English, Hindi, and Odia to interact with students, parents, and colleagues in Kendujhar. Patience and creativity to simplify complex concepts for young learners.
What You Get
Salary: Rs.25,000 - Rs.40,000 per month based on qualifications and experience. Additional benefits as per school policy for full-time TGT Sanskrit Teacher Vacancy in Kendujhar.
