Volunteer ESOL Teachers

A volunteer opportunity through the Hispanic Apostolate:

Volunteers are needed to teach English to Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) classes to immigrants in the New Orleans area. Teaching English is a fun and interesting opportunity to get to know new members of our community, as well as help them adjust to their new surroundings.

Classes will begin on January 22 and continue until the beginning of May. Teachers are asked to commit to the full semester. Teaching schedules will require a commitment of two classes a week, for two hours each class. There are morning sessions from 9-11am and evening sessions from 6:30-8:30pm. Positions are available in New Orleans, Kenner, and possibly the Northshore.

There will be a mandatory training before classes begin. It is not required to speak any language other than English. If you are interested in teaching, please email us at volunteerHA@archdiocese-no.org or call us at (504) 722-5692.
