About OSP

OSP is a prestigious summer school designed for high-achieving students aged 14-18 years from around the world. Our mission is to provide an intellectually stimulating academic experience that fosters personal growth, critical thinking, and lifelong skills.

OSP is proud to collaborate with the National Student Leadership Conference (NSLC) in delivering a world-class summer programme for high school students in 2026.

International Business and Finance Module Overview:

Our International Business & Finance module introduces students aged 14-18 to the interconnected world of global markets. Through engaging activities, case studies, and guided discussions, students explore how economies, industries, and cultures are linked across borders. They take on the perspective of global strategists, learning how organisations expand internationally, navigate trade regulations, adapt to shifting economic environments, and leverage innovation and diplomacy. The course helps students understand how business decisions are shaped on the world stage and how financial insight supports strategic growth.

For this position, we are seeking an enthusiastic and experienced tutor to deliver the Business component of the module, which takes place over the first four days of the seven-day course. As the Business Tutor, you will shape students' understanding of how organisations operate and compete globally. You will design interactive sessions, lead debates and discussions, and guide students through case studies that build real-world insight. While the module as a whole combines both business and finance, your responsibility will be solely the Business strand, working alongside a separate Finance Tutor who will take over for the final three days.

You will be provided with a full module handbook and approximately 80% of the course content, with 20% left flexible for you to adapt based on your expertise and teaching style. If you require any additional teaching materials, classroom resources, or further clarification regarding the handbook or programme content, please inform the OSP staff in advance so we can provide timely support.

Total Hours

16 hours per each 12-day programme, total of 3 programmes. In addition, tutors will receive paid training at £25 per hour, typically 2-3 hours in total, with exact training hours confirmed closer to the programme start date.

Teaching typically follows the below format:

• Seminars: 09:00-10:30

• Provide hands-on workshops in addition to seminars: Lead immersive 2-hour afternoon workshops designed to deepen students' understanding of the morning content. Use case studies, debates, simulations, and strategy exercises to encourage critical discussion, develop global-thinking skills, conduct knowledge-application tasks, and provide personalised feedback. Team Advisors (TAs) will support workshop delivery, and you will be expected to guide and train them beforehand.
• Administrative Duties: Review and organise all required equipment, resources, and classroom materials to ensure sessions run smoothly and effectively.
• Foster a positive learning environment: Build a warm, inclusive classroom where students feel confident, motivated, and encouraged to share ideas and learn collaboratively.
