Part-Time English Language Instructor (Remote – VR Platform)
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.
