Medical Actor information

What is a medical actor?

A Medical Actor, also known as a Standardized Patient, portrays patients in simulated medical scenarios to help train healthcare professionals. They follow a scripted case, presenting specific symptoms and medical histories to assess students' clinical and communication skills. Medical Actors provide constructive feedback based on their interactions with trainees. This role is essential in medical education, ensuring future providers gain hands-on experience in a controlled environment.

What does a medical actor do?

As a Medical Actor, your day often involves arriving at a simulation center, reviewing the case scenario you'll be portraying, and receiving any specific instructions from training coordinators or healthcare educators. You may participate in multiple simulated patient encounters throughout the day, consistently presenting symptoms and interacting with medical students or professionals undergoing training. Between sessions, you might provide feedback to the learners or adjust your performance based on educator guidance. The work is highly collaborative, requiring close interaction with simulation staff, instructors, and sometimes other actors. This dynamic environment allows you to contribute directly to the education and skill development of healthcare providers.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a medical actor?

To thrive as a Medical Actor, you need strong acting skills, attention to detail, and the ability to accurately portray specific medical symptoms or scenarios, usually demonstrated through prior theatrical or role-play experience. While formal certifications are not typically required, familiarity with simulation equipment and basic medical terminology is advantageous. Excellent communication, professionalism, and adaptability are key soft skills for giving consistent performances and constructive feedback to medical trainees. These skills ensure realistic training simulations that help healthcare providers practice critical skills in a controlled environment.

$65 - $75/hr

Part-time

Re-posted 20 days ago

Key responsibilities

  • Read scripts from the teleprompter in both Korean and English to teach English to Korean speakers.

  • Participate in video lessons by delivering pre-written scripts and engaging with interactive content designed for language learners.

Job description

About us
Our mission is to reinvent the way people learn, starting with language.
Learning a language can change a life by opening doors to new cultures, careers, and communities. Two billion people around the world are actively trying to learn a language, but the best way to learn (one-on-one tutoring) is hard to access at scale and hasn't been meaningfully improved in decades. Speak is building a human-level, AI-powered tutor in your pocket: a conversation-first experience that lets learners actually speak, get instant feedback, and progress through carefully designed lessons. The result is a complete path from beginner to confident speaker across multiple languages.
Speak first launched in South Korea in 2019, where Speak has now become the number one language learning app, and we now serve learners across many markets and 15+ languages. Speak is one of the world's leading AI companies, with over $150m raised in venture investment from OpenAI, Accel, Founders Fund, Khosla Ventures, and more, with a distributed team across San Francisco, Seoul, Tokyo, Taipei, and Ljubljana.
About this role
We are seeking actors to appear in our app-based video lessons as language teachers (watch all Example Videos below). In these video lessons, you'll be seated behind a table facing a camera and deliver pre-written scripts explaining language concepts and phrases for learners. While these lessons are not live, they are interactive.
Scripts also contain questions to the user and a variety of responses based on their performance. When a user goes through a video lesson, the video recording of your teaching will play, along with opportunities for the app user to practice the language you are teaching.
What you'll be doing
  • Read scripts from the teleprompter in both Korean and English to teach English to Korean speakers.
  • Portray a professional in a different industry other than education who is excited that their friend has decided to learn a new language (think helpful, friendly vibes rather than a strict teacher vibe)
  • Example Video:

    • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I5A8Q16jeoU

What we're looking for
  • Native proficiency in both Korean and English
  • A neutral Seoul accent when speaking Korean
  • A neutral American accent when speaking English
  • Ability to read and act out scripts that teach English to speakers of Korean
  • Native Korean speakers and/or heritage Korean speakers
  • Strong sense of responsibility and professionalism
  • Bright and positive vibes
  • Ability to coordinate and take directions
  • Live in Los Angeles and have access to transportation

*Those who learned English in high school/college will not qualify
[Preferred]
  • Experience working with a teleprompter
  • Experience in teaching a second language
  • Acting experience
  • A passion for language teaching/learning
Working Conditions
Speak offers competitive compensation based on skills and expertise, along with an environment that supports personal growth and concentration.
  • Contract Duration: project based (paid per project)
  • Rate: $65-$75/hr *depending on related experience
  • Working Hours: an average studio session lasts anywhere from 3 to 5 hours per day; studio days average about 2 to 3 days per project, not including zoom rehearsals
  • Work Model: in-person at our LA studio

Why work at Speak
  1. Join a fantastic, tight-knit team at the right time: we're growing very quickly, we've most recently raised our Series C from some of the top investors in the valley, and we've achieved product-market fit in our initial markets. You'd join at a magical time when a single person could significantly change the course of the company.
  2. Do your life's work with people you'll love working with: we care strongly about our craft and want every person at Speak to feel like they're growing every day. We believe in the idea that working with people you both enjoy and have respect for makes everything better. We hire thoughtfully and only work with people we admire deeply.
  3. Global in nature: We're live in over 40 countries and launching in a number of new markets soon. We have dedicated offices in San Francisco, Ljubljana, Seoul, Tokyo, and Taipei, and you'll have the opportunity to talk to users in each of these regions on a regular basis as well as travel.
  4. Impact people's lives in a major way: Learning a language is one of the single most life-changing skills one can learn, and right now 99% of people never achieve their goal because the process is broken. We're helping millions of people achieve their goals and improve their lives.
