ItalianPod Lead Teacher
As the leader of ItalianPod, you will be creating fun, exciting Italian lessons together with a native Italian-speaking Lead Host and delivering them to a virtually unlimited audience via podcast. This is an opportunity to teach in a communicative -- rather than grammar-driven -- way, to right the wrongs of the textbook-dominated classroom, and to re-kindle the enthusiasm that has been beaten out of students by years of outdated pedagogy. As a native English speaker, the insights you've gained in while mastering Italian are invaluable.
