Volunteer Home Tutor role - Wellington

Volunteer Wellington

Do you have 1-2 hours a week to help a migrant or former refugee? English Language Partners New Zealand needs volunteer home tutors to teach English to new Kiwis in the Wellington area. When you volunteer to tutor someone with a migrant or refugee background in English, you give them the world. Your support will help them gain the skills and confidence they need to settle successfully in Aotearoa New Zealand.

As a volunteer tutor, you will learn about different cultures, broaden your horizons, and make meaningful connections with people you might not otherwise have met. As much as you teach your learner, you will learn and be inspired too. A long term commitment is required as comprehensive training is provided. The next Home Tutor Training is scheduled for: 15-17 August 2024.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
