Description of the opportunity:

 

Audacious School of Language aims to provide a welcoming space for people to improve their English.

 We realise how hard it can be to learn a language with little opportunity to either practise or ask questions.  Learning English is important in enabling people to access employment, and education, make friends and manage day-to-day living.

The lessons run weekly on Tuesdays 6 pm - 7.30 pm during term time at Audacious Church.

Volunteers help with preparation for the class, facilitating activities and exercises, administration tasks and creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
