Tutor English to Korean immigrants

Recruiting English Tutors for Korean Adults and Seniors in Chicagoland

Would you like to help an underserved community? Would you like to volunteer remotely?

Hanul Family Alliance is looking for volunteers who can teach speaking, listening, reading, writing, and general conversation for English language learners. Bring your energy and goodwill to help support our local Korean American community in Chicago and the Northern Chicago suburbs!

• Registration period: Ongoing Registration

• Scheduling: The volunteer may choose the date that they would like to begin tutoring. The end date will be 10 weeks (10 sessions of 1.5 hours each) after the start date. If you enjoy this volunteer opportunity and wish to continue, we would love to arrange that as well! The volunteer tutor will choose a range of times they are available throughout the week (this can include evenings and weekends). The coordinator will match you with adult learner(s) who are also available at that time. You will then meet with your adult learner(s) at set schedule that works for both of you once per week e.g. Thursday evenings from 7-8:30pm.
