Copywriting Instructor

Copywriting Instructor and Communications Mentor

EcoServants® is seeking volunteer Copywriting Instructors to mentor interns who develop persuasive, accessible, and mission-driven communications for our environmental nonprofit. Our Copywriting program supports public awareness, volunteer recruitment, fundraising communications, campaigns, and digital outreach.

Volunteer Responsibilities

• Teach interns effective copywriting principles, audience targeting, message clarity, and calls to action.
• Mentor interns developing website copy, email campaigns, social media messaging, promotional materials, and nonprofit outreach content.
• Review written submissions for accuracy, tone, consistency, and alignment with published assignments.
• Provide actionable editing feedback and help interns strengthen persuasive writing techniques.
• Encourage ethical communications, accessibility, and responsible environmental messaging.
• Help interns connect compelling storytelling with measurable communication goals.

How EcoServants® Operates

EcoServants® is a fully volunteer-powered, 501(c)(3) environmental nonprofit. Our remote interns typically join a four-month program and complete practical, published assignments that contribute to real organizational, educational, and conservation-related projects. Work is organized through our EcoServants® Intern Portal and assignment-based Kanban board, where interns review requirements, claim appropriate assignments, submit deliverables, and receive feedback.

Your Instructor Portal & Team Support

Approved Instructors receive their own secure Instructor account and access to the EcoServants® Instructor Portal (ecoservantsproject.org/instructors-portal/). The portal supports instructor onboarding and program-focused workflows. Instructors can support one program or an approved combination of programs, participate in relevant EcoServants® Team Chats, answer questions, and review submissions against the written assignment requirements.

You are not expected to develop an entire curriculum or teach scheduled classes. Most mentorship is flexible and asynchronous: clarify an assignment, suggest improvements, provide respectful and actionable review feedback, and coordinate with nonprofit managers when a decision requires management approval.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience in copywriting, marketing communications, advertising, public relations, digital content, or related disciplines. Strong editing and communication abilities are important.

Commitment and Impact

This is a flexible, remote, unpaid volunteer opportunity. Your expertise will help developing communicators learn practical writing techniques while supporting EcoServants® environmental outreach and public engagement. Help us turn meaningful environmental messages into opportunities for people to participate and make a difference.

Instructor onboarding and access are provided to approved volunteers. This is an unpaid, remote volunteer role with flexible participation.
