Goodwill of Southwestern PA is looking for individuals who enjoy helping others to make an impact in the adult learning community by assisting our adult ESL (English as a Second Language) instructors in Zoom classes. Our main needs are Tues/Thurs 10:00AM to 12:00PM and 4:00 to 6:00PM EST. You would first talk with the teacher, observe 1-2 classes, and then work with me, the Volunteer Coordinator (also former ESL teacher here!) to co-teach a small group and get comfortable. You'd receive lesson plans and the worksheets that you would share on screen. Must have familiarity with Zoom and be willing to learn Zoom annotation, screen sharing, breakout rooms, etc. (It's not that hard! I can help you!) Volunteers ideally have, or are working toward, a bachelor’s degree (or higher) in any field, and a desire to help adult students achieve their educational goals! An interest in the subject matter is always a plus! Those interested can contact Trisha Powell, Education Volunteer Recruiter by text at 412-498-0412 or by email at trisha.powell@goodwillswpa.org
