Job description

Become a Literacy Coach with the Rural Youth and Adult Literacy Trust (RYALT)!

  • Are you passionate about literacy and making a positive impact in your community? Look no further! Our volunteer literacy coaches are the core of our organisation.

About our students

  • Students vary from people learning the alphabet to those wanting to write essays, but most are somewhere in between.
  • They don’t have the skills they need for everyday life.
  • Our students range in age from 14 to 65 and are from all walks of life.
  • We ask for your preferences about the kind of person you would be comfortable working with. Your enthusiasm, patience, and commitment are what matter most.
  • What You'll Do As a Literacy Coach

  • Volunteers for this role will be teaching the basics of reading and writing.
  • 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.
  • What We're Looking For

  • The main qualities you need are : be friendly, patient, love helping others, and have an analytical mind. Our training and support covers the rest.
  • You will need moderate technology skills. 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.
  • Requirements

  • 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.
