You will be working one to one with a student, by video-conference. Each coach will be coaching three times a week for a minimum of half an hour each time, as well as doing the planning for these meetings. Attend professional development workshops online.

You will be required to download and use our messaging app, Slack, for communication and our wiki library of resources. We have tech support people who can help you learn to use these tools, if you are not confident. Using them is an essential part of the role. This role requires long-term commitment (a minimum of a year) and a fair bit of your time. However, it can be flexible and is very rewarding. Good computer skills. Excellent spoken English, reading, and writing skills. Must be fluent in English (verbal and written). Reliable. An analytical mind and a friendly personality. NZ based.
