ESOL Home Tutor Training - New Course Starting
Do you want to make a difference in our community?
Would you like to help a new Kiwi feel more at home here?
If you would like to teach English to new migrants and help them settle into our community with the Kiwi way of life, English Language Partners has the answer. We provide a 20 + hour training course and on-going support for your volunteer teaching role. Our tutors mainly work from the learner’s home, but can also use the spacious ELPNZ premises upstairs at 10 Rathbone Street.
The next will be on 29th June. On completion of the course and assessment tasks, you will receive a Certificate in Home Tutoring endorsed by the NZQA. The course consists of a 2 1/2 day classroom programme, with a 2 hour one-on-one follow up.
This is a volunteer role. Through your kindness and generosity you could make a real difference to people in your community whilst learning about other cultures and making new friends along the way. phone 4382512 for more information
