Cultures Together Volunteers Needed
The Cultures Together Project has been designed to match our English as a Second Language students with a language mentor, to provide opportunities for conversational English practice, develop cross cultural understanding between them and potentially develop ongoing friendships.
Your mentee may have lived in Australia a long time, may be a new arrival or a temporary resident while their children, themselves or their spouse are attending educational instiutions here.
The role of language mentors in the Cultures Together Project is to:
- Build meaningful relationships with people from members of our culturally and linguistically diverse community.
- Work one on one with your paired learner using structured language activities.
Time Commitment & Schedule:
We ask you to commit to work together for around a term once a week. But this can vary from pair to pair.
Requirements:
- Genuine interest in learning about and working with people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds.
- Reliable, responsible, flexible and able to take direction.
- Patient and enthusiastic.
- Willing to adhere to KNLC’s volunteer and workplace policies.
- Willing to learn about KNLC’s philosophy and principles of adult learning.
