English Conversation Group Instructor (SY26-27)

The Public Schools of Brookline is seeking qualified candidates to lead weekly English conversation groups for parents/guardians of English learners in Brookline.

EFP (English for Parents) is open to any parents/guardians of English learners in the district. These groups offer an opportunity for participants to practice English and discuss school-related topics with a trained instructor. In addition, participants have the opportunity to connect with other international parents/guardians and share their experiences. Participants will also practice language and discuss cultural norms related to advocacy for their children at school.

Duties include: creating and executing lesson plans to teach non-native speakers English and help them learn idioms, basic grammar rules, pronunciation, and general conversational skills. Cultural adaptation issues will be addressed as well.

There will be three classes offered:

beginner

intermediate

advanced

Class schedules will be mutually agreed upon between the intructor and the ELE Director or her designee. Classes will be scheduled for three multi-week sessions between November 2026 and June 2027. The hourly rate is $40.50. Instructors are paid up to 200 hours throughout the year including prep and instructional time depending on the instructor's class schedule.
