Day-to-day operating brief

What ESOL Tutor (English) work looks like in practice

An ESOL Tutor based in a library teaches English to adult or community learners, often using everyday information, digital and library tasks. Terms should cover initial assessment, levels, lesson planning, attendance, resources, group conduct, accessibility, safeguarding, learner data, progress records and referrals. The tutor should not promise immigration outcomes, provide legal advice or use learners' personal stories and images for promotion without informed permission. Lesson records should describe language objectives and learner progress without storing unnecessary immigration histories or trauma narratives. Mixed-level groups may need differentiated tasks and volunteer support, but learners should not be publicly labelled by literacy difficulty or used as interpreters for confidential conversations with classmates.

  • Teach speaking reading writing and listening.
  • Prepare accessible learning resources.
