English Tutor

An English Tutor works with people whose first language is not English to help them better learn to speak, read and write in English. You might work with migrants or refugees and you may assist individual clients or take a small group of students. English Tutors may focus on writing skills including grammar and spelling or speaking skills such as pronunciation and listening.

An English Tutor should be able to work well with people from a range of backgrounds. It’s important that you have excellent communication skills and are patient with students learning a new language. English Tutors need to be organised and should have strong time management skills. You’ll usually be working with multiple students so you’ll need to be able to multitask.
