    Description

    Are you passionate about digital ESL and vocational training? Help us transform fragmented lesson plans into a seamless, high-impact curriculum—without the pressure of a full-time role. This volunteer opportunity includes a modest stipend to offset your time and expertise.

    About Us

    We deliver hybrid ESL training in agriculture, health care, and more via Salesforce and Google Classroom. Our teachers craft daily lessons; you’ll unify their work into a cohesive program that advances language and career skills together.

      • Draft a scope-and-sequence roadmap across all hybrid skill tracks.
      • Build standardized unit plans, teacher guides, and learner materials
      • Integrate backward-design, competency checkpoints, and UDL principles.
      • Design quick-reference assessment rubrics and progress-tracking tools
      • Collaborate with our Follow-Up Educator to enforce consistency and iteratively refine materials
      • Organize and maintain a central curriculum repository

    Who You Are

      • 3+ years in curriculum development or instructional design, ideally with adult ESL learners
      • Deep understanding of pedagogical frameworks (backward design, UDL, competency-based)
      • Comfortable with Google Classroom or other LMS tools
      • Detail-driven and adept at crafting explicit, engaging materials
      • A strong collaborator who thrives on gathering feedback from teachers and students
      • Self-motivated, deadline-oriented, and organized

    Commitment

      • Volunteer role, 10–12 hours per week
      • 3–6 month engagement, remote-friendly and flexible scheduling

    Why Join Us

      • Shape a breakthrough curriculum that bridges language and career training.
      • Work alongside dedicated educators and community leaders.
      • Gain portfolio-worthy experience in hybrid program design
      • Adding curriculum impact data to your résumé boosts future funding proposals
