Work with us

Two roles, two very different jobs

We are recruiting for both halves of the program. You do not need to be qualified to teach in order to be a good conversation mentor — the two roles ask for different things on purpose. Materials, training and marking support are provided for both; how the two roles fit together is on Our tutors.

Absorb · teacher

CELTA-qualified teacher

You lead the sessions that build understanding: working through listening and reading material, drawing out how it is organized, and putting new vocabulary in context. Lesson plans, slides and worksheets are provided — you are not writing a course from scratch.

  • CELTA or an equivalent recognized teaching qualification
  • Comfortable teaching at the A2–B1 boundary
  • Willing to teach toward a fixed competency rather than a grammar syllabus
  • Online sessions, hours by arrangement
Express · mentor

Conversation mentor

You run the speaking sessions. Your job is to get a student talking at length and keep them going when a word goes missing — not to correct their grammar. We train you on what to listen for and how to assess it consistently.

  • University student or graduate with strong, natural spoken English
  • Patient with hesitation, and interested in what students actually say
  • No teaching qualification required — training is provided
  • Paid work, online, flexible hours
