VOLUNTEERS

Do you want to practice your Spanish? Are you interested in improving the lives of Spanish speaking people in your community? Do you want experience teaching English as a Second Language in a casual environment? If you answered yes to any of these questions and have at least two free hours a week, Edúcate Ya has the perfect opportunity for you!
One of our most popular community programs is Intercambio de Lenguas, a program that matches Spanish speakers who need assistance with their English with other locals who would like to improve their Spanish. Volunteers are trained to be ESL tutors and are matched with Spanish-speaking community members who want to improve their English. 90 minutes of the class is dedicated to practicing English, the last 30 minutes are for Spanish. Intercambio is a great way to make new cross-cultural friendships and networks.

Requirements

Must attend a 3-hour training session to begin teaching
Minimum commitment of 2 hours a week for 6 months

Strong proficiency in English required

What Our Clients Are Saying

"EducateYa is a wonderful community place where I had the privilege to teach English to Spanish speakers in Portland. My students came from Hillsboro and drove all the way into town because the methods EducateYa used are so successful. The management at EducateYa, including Rafael Arellano-Barrera are encouraging to all teachers and students to learn, experiment and grow. I highly recommend EducateYa for its mission statement and principles to make everyone in the U.S. bilingual. Yes!"
Nana Nash
