The Role
We’re hiring part-time English language instructors to teach communicative, task-based lessons in virtual reality. You’ll guide adult learners in small-group sessions set in realistic environments like meeting rooms, airports, cafés, and doctor’s offices — helping them practice language in authentic, real-world contexts and build confidence speaking.

- Teach live English lessons in VR through our desktop platform (no VR headset required).
- Prepare for classes using lesson plans created by the IMMERSE Curriculum team and contribute feedback to help improve future sessions.
- Complete quick post-class reports and flag any classroom or tech issues.
- Join team trainings and meetings to stay aligned with IMMERSE teaching practices.
(All training, prep, and meeting time is paid.)
