Texas/Mexico Border Ministries: ESL Teachers

Opportunities

English as a Second Language teachers are needed to teach English at Taylor Community Center in McAllen, Texas. There is a great need and desire for ESL classes in this area near the Texas/ Mexico Border where many Spanish speaking families have settled.

Students are eager to learn English for many reasons including for use at work, at home, at the store, and during medical appointments. In a community where limited understanding of English can easily divide and isolate family members, ESL for adults is needed to bridge the gap with children and grandchildren who are learning and using English early in school.

English conversation classes have also been requested for those who just need practice speaking English in a supportive environment. ESL teachers will have the opportunity to reach out to immigrants and border residents and show them the love of Jesus while teaching them English.

Qualifications

It is preferred that applicants have a degree in Teaching English as a Second Language. Consideration will be given to applicants who do not have a degree but do have ESL experience. 

Language Requirements

English is required, but Spanish will be helpful as many in the area speak only Spanish. Spanish language school is required for long-term missionaries. 

Length of Service
  • Mid-term: two months to one year
  • Long-term: two or more years
Ministry Description

Adult ESL classes have been offered seasonally since 2021, with the goal of expanding to year-round opportunities including English conversation classes. Limited classes are now available weekly; however, a dedicated volunteer could help expand the ministry and increase student progress. ESL is offered with an emphasis on building relationships and demonstrating the transforming power of God’s love.

As an ESL teacher you will be serving with the Texas/Mexico Border Ministries team. Relationships can be built with other volunteers and WGM staff as well as with community members through conversations and prayer together. Additional service opportunities will be available.

Housing will be provided as part of your support package.

By serving with WGM in McAllen, Texas, you can help multiply impact for Christ on the Texas/Mexico Border.
