Youth children volunteer volunteer roles

Summary of role

We are looking for teachers with a recognised ESOL qualification to support clients on a 1:1 basis with speaking, reading and writing English for an hour or so each week.

How does this role make a difference?

This support provided by volunteers to our clients really helps them progress with their English. Often clients do not have opportunities to learn English outside of the classroom or interact with a British-born person, so this opportunity is invaluable to them. Improving our clients English also enables individuals to access our other services such as, the employment team and digital inclusion, which will in turn, improve their employment prospects and assist in integration in their local community.

Who will you be helping?

Our clients are refugees, migrants and asylum seekers who are unable to afford or access English classes at colleges. We have many clients at the Centre who need one-to-one support with their English, mostly around listening and speaking, fluency and confidence building.

Your mission will be to ensure that my digital footprint, professional narrative, and media presence reflect Authority, EQ, and Global Impact.

Key Responsibilities

• Narrative Re-Positioning: Audit current assets to pivot the brand from "Media Host" to "Global Leadership Authority," integrating legacy achievements as social proof.
