Project Light of Manatee, Inc.
Currently, Project Light Language School offers Face-to-Face and Virtual instructions. Our school building meets the CDC's requirements to address the COVID-19 situation. The building is equipped with UV lights in our school AC system; temperature check-in upon entering the building is required. Classrooms have individual desks and table dividers, masks/face shields are required and provided, sanitary stations available, and hallways/classrooms/desks are cleaned regularly.
Project Light needs volunteers to teach English as a foreign language to adults in organized classes at Project Light's location (1104 14th Street West) and two other locations (Samoset and Palmetto). Project Light of Manatee is an Adult English Language School (non-profit) in Bradenton.
Most teachers teach 1-2 classes per week( 2-4 hrs) when they can complete a semester (Fall or Spring). The School is closed during the summertime. The school follows Manatee School District closure days.
The minimum required time is 2 hours.
The school has comfortable newly remodeled classrooms, textbooks, support, and training.
There are 5-14 students in a group. We do not require any previous teaching experience, although it is a plus.
Teacher training is provided individually or in groups throughout the year and daily if necessary.
The school uses ESOL (English for speakers of other languages) textbooks and curriculum. Student's learning progress is monitored through tests.
We also offer Citizenship and Computer classes.
Retired teachers find this a rewarding experience.
Classes are held weekly.
