Recruiting Organization: EnglishTogether.org

English Together is starting up its fall volunteer activities.English Together is a non-profit organization that leverages research on language learning and the rich history of student volunteering at Stanford to provide English language "practice partners" for the adult, Spanish-speaking workforce in the Bay Area. No Spanish is needed. We work with workers who want to improve their lives and their existing English.

We offer training and guidance for volunteers before we match them with workers. To learn more, go to our website English Together, or to register for a one-hour virtual meeting here: https://englishtogether.org/interest/.
