FUNetix 12 Hour Reading App - Its FREE, Its EASY, Its FUN, Chicago, Illinois, United States, 60290
Overview
FUNetix is a patented, science-based, and simplified way of teaching reading to children. The FUNetix Reading App is available in the App Store, Google Play, and Amazon App store. FUNetix aims to help children learn to read by mapping the 44 sounds of English to letters and letter combinations. The American Youth Literacy Foundation, dba FUNetix, is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 2008. Our mission is to enable all children in every classroom in America to learn how to read by the end of 3rd grade and to deploy the FUNetix Reading App nationwide. We are developing the FUNetix ESL app (21ESL) and are seeking Hispanic ESL teachers to participate in paid research and development using an alpha prototype. Teachers will use the 21ESL app, based largely on the FUNetix Reading App, to teach Spanish-speaking students how to read, write, speak, and understand English. Teachers will work with the User Experience (UX) ESL Team and our Project Manager. They may incorporate additional concepts and materials as appropriate during the teaching experience, and will use Google Meet to record teaching sessions. A special compensation will be paid to both the teacher and the student’s family. As part of this research program, teachers and families will be compensated for up to 12 hours of their time, regardless of how many modules of the 21ESL prototype app are completed. For more information about our story and team, visit www.FUNetix.org. Mr. R. Kali Woodward Founding, Executive Director Role and Responsibilities
The Hispanic ESL teachers will use the prototype app as a teaching template and may enhance the curriculum with additional concepts and materials as needed. They will communicate primarily in Spanish and use English only when appropriate. The role does not require full English-only immersion. Key activities include: Teaching Spanish-speaking students using the alpha prototype 21ESL app to build reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills. Collaborating with the UX ESL Team and Project Manager to guide development and provide feedback. Recording teaching sessions via Google Meet for research purposes. Qualifications
Native language Spanish speakers or individuals with exceptional proficiency in Spanish. Ability to communicate in the student’s native language (Spanish) most of the time, with English used as appropriate. Experience in volunteering or working in a virtual environment using networking and communications tools is helpful. Compensation and Time Commitment
Compensation is provided to both the teacher and the family for up to 12 hours of participation, regardless of the number of modules completed. How to Apply
If this opportunity sounds like a fit, please reply to this listing with information about yourself. We look forward to hearing from you and discussing the future of literacy in America and around the world. Chicago, IL
