Pittsburgh, PA 15260
The French Program of the Department of French and Italian at the University of Pittsburgh seeks a full-time Teaching Assistant Professor of French to teach three 3-credit courses in each term of the academic year. Outside the tenure-stream, this position is offered on an initial term of two years, with renewal subject to performance and evaluation. Pending budgetary approval, the appointment will begin on August 15, 2026, and end on May 15, 2028. Course duties may include elementary and intermediate-level courses in the language sequence, more advanced courses in literature, culture, and media (taught in French), and general education courses taught in English for a broad audience. We are especially interested in applicants who can teach sections of our low-level general education courses, such as "Paris: Urbanism Past and Present," History of French Cinema," and "French Kiss" (all in English). We are also interested in someone who can coordinate multiple sections of "French Kiss," providing training and mentoring of fellow instructors and advanced graduate students. Courses meet three times a week for 50 minutes or twice a week for 75 minutes.
Eligible instructors must have at least a Master's degree in French or in a closely related field, C1-level proficiency in French and English, and experience teaching French in a college or university setting. A PhD in hand, in French Studies or a closely related field, is preferred. The candidate must possess broad competence in teaching introductory and intermediate French language courses that employ current foreign language pedagogical approaches (communicative, content-based, multiliteracies, and genre-based pedagogies). Applicants must have a demonstrated interest and proven proficiency in teaching, knowledge of the Common European Framework reference for Languages (CEFR) and the DELF/DALF exam system, and the ability to mentor undergraduate and graduate students in curricular and experiential contexts. Service to the department will be expected. Duties may include advising majors and minors; coordinating sections of general education courses; planning and coordinating undergraduate recruitment, community-building and extracurricular events; and weekly conversation tables.
Current certification to administer DELF A1-B2 exams is preferred.
To apply, please send the following: current curriculum vitae; a letter of application (addressed to Prof. John Walsh, Chair, Department of French and Italian); graduate transcripts (unofficial or official); names and contact information of three references; a teaching portfolio containing sample syllabi, 3-4 sets of teaching evaluations (with comments), and a statement (1-2 pages) that describes how your teaching has contributed to the success of students who are underrepresented at your doctoral institution or current place of academic employment. Applicants should share how their past, planned, or potential contributions or experiences relating to a variety of student populations will advance the University of Pittsburgh's commitment to student success and sense of belonging.

Review of applications will begin on January 5, 2026, and applications will be considered until the position is filled. We will request additional materials (including three letters of recommendation) after the initial screening and invite candidates to a Zoom interview.
