COSTI empowers individuals from diverse communities to succeed and achieve their full potential by providing educational, employment and social services. We are currently seeking volunteers to support our ESL (English as a Second Language) program. This program is designed to equip newcomers with the English language skills they need to thrive in the Canadian job market and community. We will be running three program sessions throughout the Winter, Spring, and Summer. Due to the large classroom size of approximately 30 students per teacher, volunteer support will enhance the student learning. In-person and online volunteer support is needed.

To apply, please email michelle.musson@costi.org

This role is a rewarding opportunity to make a difference in the lives of newcomers and individuals eager to improve their language skills. Volunteers will gain hands-on experience in adult education, expand their teaching and facilitation skills, and contribute meaningfully to our community.

Schedule:

Programming starts in January and finishes in August. However, there are 3 sessions:

• Cycle A: January 6 - March 28, 2025 (12 weeks)
• Cycle B: April 1 - June 23, 2025 (12 weeks)
• Cycle C: June 30 - August 1, 2025 (5 weeks)

There are Monday to Friday, daytime or evening, volunteer options.
