We are seeking experienced ESL instructors to teach communicative lessons for adult learners using our immersive language learning platform.
Learners practice English in realistic environments such as meeting rooms, cafés, and workplace scenarios, helping them build confidence speaking English for professional and everyday communication.
This role is ideal for instructors who enjoy working closely with adult learners, facilitating meaningful conversation, and using innovative teaching technology.

Compensation is region and experience-based. In many regions, rates fall within the $15-$20 USD/hour range.
Compensation includes:
  • Paid instructional sessions
  • Paid preparation time
  • Paid onboarding and training
  • Paid operational meetings
Why Teachers Like Working With IMMERSE
  • Teach motivated adult professionals
  • Work with small groups (up to 12) allowing deeper impact on language development
  • Structured lesson frameworks (no full curriculum creation required)
  • Teach in innovative and immersive teaching environments
  • Fully remote teaching
  • Collaborative community focused on pedagogy and learner progress
What a Typical Session Looks Like
  • Facilitate structured English communicative lessons with adult learners
  • Guide learners through real-life scenarios such as meetings, travel, or professional communication
