Hello there,
The Iowa International Center is looking for a volunteer instructor for one of our morning conversation classes on Thursday morning. Our accessible ELL (English Language Learning) program assists immigrants and refugees in English language and literacy development to better navigate their new community. As a volunteer instructor, you can provide support new Iowans need to increase their English skills and transition into a new area.

You will also have the opportunity to build your intercultural skills, create community connections and participate in ongoing skill-building trainings.
