Hybrid teachers have the opportunity to combine their job in the industry with a teaching job. This way, they get to share their knowledge, experience and practical skills with pupils and students. And simultaneously increase the educational capacity.

Teaching within Brainport Eindhoven

By becoming a hybrid teacher, you have the opportunity to pass your knowledge and experience gained in the industry on to the students. Increasing the quality of education, since students are being prepared for their future based on proper examples. Are you interested in combining your job in the industry with a teaching job? Then you should know that there are several ways to work as a hybrid teacher:

  • Teaching regular guest lectures
    You will periodically teach a group of students who are interested in learning more about your field of expertise. You will spent 4 to 8 hours a week teaching students. The rest of the working week you can focus on your regular job.

  • Joint teaching of a learning module
    You will be teaching an entire learning module jointly with other (hybrid) teachers. This means that you will regularly teach classes over a short period next to your regular job.

  • Combining a job in the industry with a teaching job

    Together with a school, you will create a learning environment within your current position and allow students to gain theoretical and practical skills under your supervision.
