About Us
SpeakUp! Learning is a growing education startup dedicated to helping non-native speakers (primarily based in China) overcome their fear of making mistakes and achieve real-world conversational fluency. We are looking for a friendly, patient, and reliable tutor to join our team and teach using our unique, student-centric methodology.
You will work directly with students to develop their accuracy, confidence, and fluency in practical, real-world contexts. Responsibilities include preparing engaging sessions, continuously assessing student progress, and personalizing lessons to meet individual needs.
This is a part-time remote position.
Key Responsibilities
Prepare and deliver engaging, 1-on-1 conversational English sessions. Continuously assess student progress and provide constructive, encouraging feedback. Personalize lesson plans and materials to meet individual student needs and goals. Foster a dynamic, supportive, and safe learning environment.
What We’re Looking For
Language Skills: Native proficiency in English with the ability to clearly explain grammar, phonetics, and common idioms. (Bilingual proficiency in Mandarin is a strong asset, English MUST be your native language). Teaching Experience: Prior experience in teaching, mentoring, or coaching. Strong lesson planning skills and the ability to tailor your approach. Intercultural Competence: High empathy and the ability to understand and respond to the unique needs of non-native learners. Technical Requirements: A reliable high-speed internet connection, a quiet workspace, and a webcam/microphone setup.

About SpeakUp! Learning
At SpeakUp! Learning, we believe that true language mastery isn't found in a grammar textbook but is built through active, confident conversation. We deconstruct the complexities of the English language so our students can stop translating in their heads and start speaking with clarity.
Based in Winnipeg, we are a specialized online communication coaching service dedicated to helping non-native speakers (with a primary focus on students from China) master conversational English.
Our Method: Unlike traditional ESL tutoring that relies on rote memorization, we take a structured, first-principles approach to language. Founded by a multidisciplinary scholar with a background in Physics, Computer Science and Mathematics, our methodology applies rigorous logic to deconstruct English pronunciation, idioms, and conversational flow. Additionally, our ability to provide foundational support and explanation in Chinese, French, and Tamil allows us to pinpoint exact cross-linguistic hurdles and accelerate the learning process.
What We Deliver:
Conversational Confidence: Helping learners transition from passive reading and writing to active, real-time speaking without hesitation.
Structural Fluency: Breaking down intimidating English idioms and cultural nuances into logical, manageable patterns, focusing on the "how" and "why" of Western communication.
Our Goal: To provide the framework, understanding, and confidence to simply SpeakUp!
