The Adult Education Program at Queens Community House is looking for Substitute English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) Teachers to join our diverse, multilingual, and talented teaching staff. We have classes during the day (9am-11:30am and 12-2:30pm) and also in the evenings (6:30-9:30pm) from Monday through Thursday. Our teaching philosophy is simple: we teach English that our adult immigrant students can use as soon as they leave the classroom.
Queens Community House (QCH) is a multi-site, multi-service settlement house that serves the diverse population of Queens through a broad network of programs and services for Children and Youth, Adults and Families, and Older Adults. Our mission is to provide individuals and families with the tools to enrich their lives and build healthy, inclusive communities. We are a modern interpretation of the traditional settlement house, bringing to our work current best practices, cost-effective management, innovative leadership, and a passion for social and economic justice.

Class instruction should be student-centered, and should reflect student needs and interests, which include employment, family health, access to services, community, civics, etc.
The Substitute Teacher is expected to meet and instruct assigned classes in our Queens location and at the times designated, and to create a classroom environment that is conducive to learning. The Substitute teacher will work with the director and administrative staff to ensure successful achievement of curriculum goals and administrative duties (e.g. taking attendance for the class, timesheet). The Substitute Teacher may also be invited to conduct BEST Plus tests when needed.
