Job Details

This company work with adults who speak English as a second language. They have management and corporate experience, so they are looking to speak to a different type of "teacher" - someone who has an academic or industry background that is similar to theirs.

This role is part-time but it can develop into full-time depending on your availability and ability to retain clients:

Coaches are partnered with clients based on the client's preferences.
Flexible times as an independent contractor.
They don't schedule surprise meetings or require you to wait at your computer in case someone logs on.
There can be a gap between hiring and being partnered with your first client. They retain an eligible pool of vetted coaches for clients to choose from.

There is no set curriculum to teach, so it is very stimulating for the coach and student. You are required to give feedback and mentor your clients.

This role suits a person who enjoys explaining patiently and who listens carefully. For example, a good coach encourages the client to speak for about 70% of the time so they can offer feedback. You should also enjoy learning about foreign cultures and sharing about your own daily experiences.

You will need to type quite a lot during the session. You need to type key phrases / sentences to show clients how/where they made a mistake while speaking and fill in the feedback forms. Coaches who don't maintain a high standard usually lose clients and their company offers most of the new clients first to coaches with high retention rates.

Requirements:

1) At least 5 years of corporate experience in any of the following areas: Business Administration, Law, HR, Pharmaceuticals, Marketing, IT, Manufacturing, Science, Engineering and B2B Sales (NOT customer facing retail sales), and other skilled education fields.

2) A University degree;

3) A TEFL/TESOL certificate; Teaching experience is an advantage but not essential. Training will be provided before starting with your first client.

4) A quick typing speed (30 - 40 WPM) to take appropriate notes (The faster you are, the easier the work is to do);

5) Fast internet connection and a quiet place to work.

Additional Benefits

Note: Sessions are pro-rated meaning that the hourly pay is divided by the length of the session.

Requirements

US, UK, CAN, SA, NZ, AUS citizens only
