WHO ARE WE?
Fluency Corp is a privately-owned group of talented instructors that want to take English-language teaching/executive language coaching (building fluency, polishing, improving communication) to a new level for the executives that we work with.
PLEASE READ TIL END TO BE CONSIDERED.
We not only teach our students English through relevant, interesting conversation (as we all learned our first language!), but we motivate them to keep learning by communicating with others in the community, and trying new ways to learn that truly boost fluency like TV and making friends. We also give highly customized lessons based on client's job and interests.
For this client Fluency Corp will
- meet with the client to understand high level view of what they want to learn and give you the topics (ie safety, reporting a problem) and possibly some initial questions, phrases and vocabulary lists
- support you, the teacher, throughout the process
You (the coach) will
- ensure they are speaking in class as much as possible (role play!)
- get to know the students and learn EXACTLY what they need to learn so that you can create lesson plans that are 100% relevant for their daily communication needs
- not focus on grammar lessons but more practical lessons and real work usage (all communication activities please)
- ensure employees gain confidence and higher fluency for the specific conversations they need to have at work
- bring a lot of energy and fun to classes
We are serious about our jobs and care deeply about our students.
You must :
- have 5+ years teaching ENGLISH AS A SECOND LANGUAGE - SPECIFICALLY to adults in a one on one or small group setting (average 7 - 15 employees in a class)
- have experience keeping the class lively after a hard day's work
- be able to fill out a an attendance file after each class, and a progress report 3 times throughout the course
- understand and effectively execute learning what they need to learn, and creating lesson plans according to what they relate to you
- ask after every class what they enjoyed most, what was most helpful, and quickly learn what helps them most, since this is only 12 weeks.
- be always on time (preferably early)
We look forward to speaking!
