    Description

    Help Immigrants in Austin, TX Learn English this Spring

    Manos de Cristo (Manos) is a nonprofit that offers ESL classes to students in Austin, Texas. Our ESL classes range from Levels Basic through High Intermediate. Our growing education program relies entirely on volunteer instructors, and that's why we need you!

    Our ESL teachers provide classes on-site and gain experience in lesson planning, interpersonal communication and exposure to cultural diversity. Teachers prepare and administer lessons from materials provided by Manos while bringing the English language to life from their own real world applications.

    We are looking for dedicated volunteers to commit to teach on-site classes once or twice a week between 9:30AM and 11:30 AM or 6:30PM and 8:30PM (Central Time). Classes begin on January 20 or 21 and will run through May 7, 2026. Previous ESL teaching experience is a plus but not a requirement, as is knowledge of other languages. Volunteers will receive curriculum guides, ebook/platform access and materials, and additional learning resources from the Manos Education staff. Training workshops are provided when the resources are available.

    Please contact Karin Zamora at kzamora@manosdecristo.org or apply using

    Individuals who desire hands on training in the world of ESL are highly encouraged to apply. This would also be an excellent opportunity for someone looking to teach English abroad. Manos de Cristo is a nonprofit organization committed to empowering low-income individuals by promoting dignity and self-reliance.
