Teach English Online
Volunteer as an online English teacher today!
Intercambio provides an easy-to-use curriculum, practical training, and all the support you need to make it fun and easy to teach English.
When you become a volunteer, you join a community of volunteer teachers you’ll meet at various online events and trainings. CC English provides schedule flexibility for both teachers and students. If you’re 18+, live in the United States, and have the ability to commit to two 90-minute sessions per week for at least three months, join us as a volunteer teacher.
The best part? You’ll learn just as much from your student as they will learn from you!

Frequently Asked Questions
We’re so excited that you’d like to become a CC English teacher! The first step is to set up your CC English account and complete your profile. Next, watch the orientation videos, which take roughly one hour to complete and can be done in parts. Once you’re done with the orientation, you will be able to access a demo of the CC English platform and see some of the resources in action. Familiarize yourself with the curriculum and available resources, and prepare for your first class with the teacher book and class slides. Finally, meet your student and start teaching! Of course, we’ll be here every step of the way to help answer any questions or concerns you may have.
All of our students complete an initial online placement test that matches them with a corresponding book level in our Confidence and Connections curriculum. Once you have been matched, you will receive your student’s profile information, which will include the book level of our curriculum that they tested into.
We want to make sure all CC English participants are having a good experience. If you are having any problems, please contact us at online@intercambio.org, and we will be happy to help. We can help you work with your student, or we can find a new student for you.
Life happens and things change, we get it. You can end your participation at any time. We kindly ask you to give us as much notice as possible; please contact us at online@intercambio.org. We will notify your student and transition them to another teacher. Thank you for your time and dedication, and please let us know if you’re available to teach again in the future.
