Language Tutor careers
A Language Tutor is responsible for teaching students of various ages and proficiency levels to speak, write, and understand a foreign language. Duties include preparing lesson plans, delivering one-on-one or group lessons, assessing student progress, providing feedback, and tailoring lessons to individual learning styles.
Language Tutors may also help students with language exams, cultural understanding, and offer support in enhancing conversational skills. Flexibility and patience are essential.
