West Side Ecumenical Ministry (WSEM)/El Barrio
For any individual or family unit, gainful employment is an integral part of achieving stability. To help adults achieve self-sustaining jobs, WSEM has developed a Workforce Partnership Program focused on employee recruitment
and preparation. This program will help adults in the community to enter training and/or educational programs that will result in steady jobs and career-building positions. El Barrio now offers career pathways through vocational training in Commercial Driving, Construction, and Customer Service.We are a social service agency on Cleveland's near west side looking for volunteers to teach English as a Second Language to adults. The ideal candidate would have some ESL teaching experience, possibly in the Peace
Corps or something like that, or a pretty good feel for English grammar. Excellent oral and written communication skills are a must. While we do provide support and assistance, we do not provide any sort of formal training.
Most of our students speak Spanish as their first language, so some knowledge of Spanish may be helpful, but not necessary. These particular students are at an intermediate to advanced level of English, so they are quite fluent, but working on details of grammar.
