We are looking for enthusiastic and compassionate volunteers to support the delivery of our Learn English Together conversation club. The volunteers will assist the English tutor to improve practical English language skills of migrants, refugees and newcomers to Scotland. This role involves a weekly commitment at a regular time to support a small group of adult learners for 2 hours. The typical tasks include:
• Helping the tutor prepare the learning space and materials;
• Engaging adult learners in informal conversations, group activities or games to help them practise speaking English;
• Providing learners with one-to-one or small-group support to develop their knowledge and skills, encouraging and inspiring participants to reach their full potential.

Very strong English language skills and ability to communicate with a variety of people of different races, cultures and religious backgrounds are essential. We particularly welcome volunteers from the communities where our learners are based.
The minimum commitment is 3 months. Induction will be given. Ongoing training is offered. Travel expenses will be covered.
