Volunteer Tutor - The Role

Our volunteer tutors work in fun, dynamic and sometimes challenging community classroom settings. As a volunteer for us, you will be well-supported by a development worker but will also be able to work independently.

As a volunteer for us, you will receive:

• The dedicated support of a Development Worker
• Free access to our online and in-office resource libraries
• Access to our Curriculum
• Training and continual professional development opportunities
• ESOL teaching experience from a well-respected and well-known community organisation
• References and news of any paid ESOL opportunities in Glasgow and Scotland
• Volunteer support and peer-sharing meetings
• Travel expenses and photocopying/printing 
• A reference, after three months of active volunteering

Volunteer teaching has not just given me the chance to help people, I have met a wonderful extended English language learning/teaching family.
