About IMMERSE

IMMERSE is a language learning platform that helps adults build real fluency through live instruction and AI-powered practice in contextual 3D environments. We provide immersive, high-quality language instruction designed for real workplace communication. We partner with organizations globally to deliver high-quality, workplace-ready language learning that's interactive, practical, and human.

The Role

We're hiring part-time English language instructors to teach communicative, task-based lessons from their computers to learners attending in VR or on PC.

We're seeking experienced, professionally trained ESL instructors who can confidently 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.

This is a structured teaching role for educators with strong pedagogy, group-classroom experience, and comfort with technology.

In addition to immersive group sessions, some Guides may also facilitate 1:1 executive coaching engagements with senior professionals focused on leadership communication, high-stakes presentations, and strategic business conversations. 

Why You'll Love Teaching with IMMERSE

• Innovative platform: Teach in immersive VR environments purpose-built for communicative language development — not generic virtual classrooms.
  
• Diverse learners: Teach professionals through our B2B partnerships and motivated individuals through our global membership community.
  
• Pedagogy-Driven Community: Collaborate with fellow educators who care deeply about instructional quality, learner progress, and authentic connection.
  
• Global, Meaningful Work: Help learners around the world gain the confidence to speak English in professional and everyday settings.
  

What We're Looking For

Required Qualifications

• BA in TESOL or a closely related field.
  (If the degree is not TESOL-related, a minimum of 120 hour TESOL level certificate and extensive ESL teaching experience is required.)
• 2+ years of structured ESL/EFL teaching experience.
  
• Experience teaching adult learners speaking and listening skills in professional or academic contexts.
  
• Group class experience (groups of 8+).
  
• Strong foundation in communicative and task-based teaching methods.
  
• Comfortable using technology and learning new platforms.
  
• C1 English proficiency (CEFR) or Advanced High (ACTFL) equivalent required.
  
• Organized, reliable, and able to follow processes and communicate proactively.
  
  

Preferred Qualifications:

• Speak Spanish or Portuguese at a high level and/or have experience teaching those languages.

• You don't have a background in communicative or task-based teaching.
  
• You are uncomfortable troubleshooting basic tech issues.
  
• You cannot commit to consistent availability.
  
• You do not meet our tech requirements (PC + Ethernet connection required).

Compensation

• Compensation is competitive and commensurate with experience, qualifications, and geographic location.
  
• Compensation includes instructional sessions, designated preparation time, required onboarding, and scheduled operational meetings.
