North Shore Community Action Programs (NSCAP) Adult Education Program is seeking a part-time ESOL Instructor/Career Advisor for our MassSTEP ESOL Certified Nurse Aide (CNA) Program in partnership with Essex North Shore Agricultural and Technical High School. This position works very closely with our RN Instructor to ensure student success in the program.

The ESOL Instructor provides English instruction to support students with occupational training, certification, workforce preparation, civics, and job placement. The instructor delivers group and individual instruction to adult learners, creates standards-based and rigorous lessons relevant to the needs and goals of students, participates in curriculum and program development, has the ability to adapt teaching styles and materials to meet students’ individual needs, and models lifelong learning to students.

The Career Advisor facilitates the student’s journey from recruitment, intake, and orientation to licensure, job placement and beyond. The advisor also connects learners with various support services, ensuring student retention, achievement, and success. The advisor conducts daily data entry using program databases and maintains students’ confidentiality.

The position is seasonal. The program runs for 14 weeks twice per school year (generally September to December and February to May). This position is 15 hours per week for instruction (including prep and admin hours) and 3 hours per week for career advising. The class schedule is Tues/Wed/Thurs 4:00-7:00pm.
