    Play Minecraft in French with kids! - Volunteer Minecraft Helper (French-speaking)

    Our non-profit provides French language after school programs all around the Bay Area.

    We are looking for 1 or 2 volunteer(s) to assist the facilitator of our Minecraft Supervised Sessions that occur every first Sunday of the month.

    What are our Minecraft sessions? For two hours per month, we will enable participants between the ages of 8 and 11 to develop their logical and rational skills in a fun, Francophone environment. In a small group (10 players maximum) supervised by a facilitator, they will be able to form friendships and let their creativity run wild!

    Who?

    You speak French at a B2 level or higher, enjoy playing with children, are a natural leader, and are familiar with Minecraft. This role is ideal for students seeking an immersive French environment outside of traditional classroom settings (and without the grammar lessons!)

    When?

    The Minecraft sessions will occur every third Sunday of the month from 10am to 12pm (PST).

    Description:

    As a Volunteer Minecraft Helper, you will engage with children in French throughout the session while playing Minecraft alongside them. Your key responsibilities will include:

    • Monitoring the children's activities, offering encouragement, and providing positive feedback. Volunteers are expected to take initiative in their interactions.
    • If a child appears disengaged, suggesting in-game activities (such as building a house or working on creative projects) to spark their interest.
    • Fostering teamwork among the children and assisting in resolving any conflicts that may arise.
    • Understand and adhere to the EFBA’s teaching philosophy: play-based learning experience, full immersion environment, safe social emotional learning environment, cultural diversity, positive reinforcement, inclusivity.
