As a Social Inclusion Volunteer – English language teacher, you will be connected with someone who wishes to learn English, both written and conversational. Your role will provide companionship and support with a focus on helping the client to learn English. The role will nurture the client’s well-being by improving their ability to participate in the community. Research shows that people who are lonely or isolated have poorer physical and mental health outcomes. The successful candidate will have similar interests or experiences as the client, and ideally, speak Hakka/Mandarin.

You will bring your friendly and good interpersonal skills to the role. You will have experience assisting people to learn English and may have a relevant qualification to teach English to people who speak other languages.

You will be working in a supportive and inclusive team. You will receive opportunities for professional and personal development.
