Online ESL Teacher Job Description
We are looking for new teachers to join our team.
The job is part-time and is meant to be a supplement to one’s primary source of income. We ask teachers to commit to providing 4.5 hours daily availability, and we schedule classes only within that availability.
We have positions for (native) English, French, Norwegian, German and Italian teachers
We provide training and lesson plans. Much of the down-time in teaching is preparation, but we take care of the majority of that for you by providing well-designed lesson plans for all levels.
Of course we also take care of sales, scheduling and billing, which is very time consuming for a private teacher. And of course, there is no cost or time wasted in commuting.
As it is an online position, we do need to know that our instructors can meet our minimum technical requirements: 2 Mbps download, 1 Mbps upload speed, a stable cable connection to the internet (wifi is not sufficiently stable), a pc or laptop running Windows 7 or higher, or Mac OS X.1 or higher, and a usb headset.
If this position suits, you can meet the minimum technical requirements then please send your cv to jose.louwes@berlitzeu.com

Company Information for Berlitz Virtual Classroom
What is the Berlitz Virtual Classroom?
BVC lessons are the same as lessons delivered in an LC except that the instructor and student do not sit in the same physical room. Instead, they sit in entirely different rooms, possibly even different time zones and communicate over the Internet. During BVC lessons both the instructor and student ask questions, speak, listen, indicate, write, draw, exchange notes and browse the World Wide Web in real time.
How does it work?
The BVC relies on computers linked via the Internet in conjunction with the Interwise Moderator (instructor) and Participant (student) applications. Once the programs are installed, on their respective computers, instructors and students enter a scheduled lesson just like a lesson in an LC, by logging in to the BVC web site.
The BVC team provides technical guidance and support for all live lessons to ensure that instructors need only focus on instructing and students need only focus on learning via the Berlitz Method.
What is in the Berlitz Virtual Classroom?
The Berlitz Virtual Classroom has the following instructional tools: dynamic white screen (a.k.a. white board), paint box tools, text tools, libraries of illustrations and photographs, shared Internet browsing, application sharing and more. These tools are available to both students and instructors making for varied and dynamic lessons.
The Berlitz Virtual Classroom may not have walls however just like in a regular class only those who have been invited can enter the lesson. Passwords, usernames, and schedules permit invited parties to enter whilst keeping uninvited parties out.
In addition to these features, each lesson can be recorded and reviewed by the participants. Students can playback and review their language lesson for learning purposes while Berlitz Instructors can playback and review their lessons for personal appraisal and professional development.
