A well-established international school in Malaysia, close to Kuala Lumpur, is seeking an experienced Primary German Teacher who can also teacher another subject (like English, Math, Science, Social Science, PE, etc). Candidates should hold at least a Bachelor's Degree and valid teaching qualification and 2-3 years of post qualification teaching experience. They should have in-depth knowledge of / familiarity with the National Curriculum of England and Wales and, ideally, previous international experience. Teachers who are looking for a more cultural experience and are not looking for a typical expatriate lifestyle tend to be a good fit for this school. The school has a traditional approach to education and is very academic, and as such, looks for these qualities in its teaching staff. Single teachers or married teaching couples without dependants tend to be the best fit for this school in terms of the salary and benefits on offer.

Located in lush, green surroundings at the heart of Cyberjaya, the campus is only a 35-minute drive from central Kuala Lumpur. The school offers a curriculum broadly based on the National Curriculum for England and Wales (in conjunction with Cambridge Assessment International Education) and offer affordable education to children of parents living and working in and around Putrajaya and Cyberjaya.

Regional Info:
Cyberjaya can be a very attractive place for expats, especially those working in tech or education. As Malaysia’s tech hub, it offers strong infrastructure, including high-speed internet and smart-city planning, making it ideal for professionals in digital industries. The city is well connected, with good road links and MRT access, making commuting to Kuala Lumpur or Putrajaya relatively convenient. On the lifestyle front, Cyberjaya is green and thoughtfully designed, with well-maintained parks, walking and cycling paths, and a generally clean, low-density environment. Housing options range from condos to landed homes, often more affordable compared to central Kuala Lumpur, and come with modern amenities and good security. The cost of living is moderate, public services are reliable, and there is a growing expat and international student community due to the presence of universities. However, there are some trade-offs. The nightlife and cultural attractions are limited, and public transport within the city can be less convenient, so having a car is often more practical. For some expats, the relatively quieter, tech-focused vibe may feel a bit sterile compared to the bustling energy of a major city. Overall, Cyberjaya is ideal for expats who value a modern, green, and tech-oriented lifestyle with easy access to Malaysia’s main hubs, but less suited for those seeking a vibrant cultural or nightlife scene.
