Allies for Immigrants: ESOL Corps Virtual Training

Join the Allies for Immigrants ESOL Corps!

Allies for Immigrants: English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) Corps - a partnership with English for New Bostonians. 

About the Allies for Immigrants: ESOL Corps

Allies volunteers are a part of a network of volunteers who share a passion for enhancing English skills for adult learners. Corps volunteers deepen their community engagement by committing to serve a minimum of twice a month through the Corps and attending skill building opportunities throughout the program year. 

Volunteers serve at Allies for Immigrants ESOL programs in the following ways:

• Support an ESOL classroom teacher two or more times a month
• Serve as a site lead and coordinate Allies for Immigrant volunteer tutors 
• Become a lead citizenship class instructor or conversation group leader
• Facilitate a small group of students one day a week in an integrated ESOL/technology skills course 

During the Training:

• Volunteers will receive an overview of the Allies for Immigrants ESOL Corps
• Volunteers will learn about the 13 ESOL program sites across the city, and become familiarized with their selected site
• Volunteers will participate in a preliminary ESOL tutor training to go over tips and tricks for working with English Language Learners

We are excited to welcome you to the Allies for Immigrants program!

Please note that the Zoom link will be emailed to you the morning of the training.
