ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENTS

What We Need From You

Language Requirement

You can apply if you meet one of the following criteria:

Option 1: Native English Speaker

English is your native language and you feel confident teaching it to adult learners, professionals, and/or corporate clients.

Option 2: Certified C1 or C2

English is not your native language, but you have a certified C1 or C2 level of English.

Accepted certifications:

Cambridge English qualifications, IELTS, TOEFL, TOEIC, Linguaskill, Oxford Test of English, or other recognised C1/C2 English certifications.

We welcome both native and non-native teachers. What matters most is your teaching ability, communication style, language proficiency, professionalism, and alignment with Habla Bonito's methodology.

Availability Requirement

You must be able to commit to:

  • A minimum of 10 teaching hours per week
  • Stable weekly availability
  • Availability during our high-demand hours
  • A minimum collaboration period of 8 months if selected

This is very important to us. Our students build trust and connection with their teachers. When a teacher leaves after only a few weeks or changes their availability unexpectedly, it affects the student experience.

We value stability, consistency, and long-term collaboration.

Technology Requirement

Because our classes are fully online, you must have:

  • A reliable laptop or computer
  • Stable internet connection
  • A quiet and professional teaching space
  • Functional camera and microphone
  • Confidence using Zoom
  • Confidence using Google Workspace (Gmail, Drive, Docs, Sheets, Calendar)

We also value familiarity with:

Notion, Canva, online whiteboards, learning platforms, AI tools, and digital resources for online teaching.

You do not need to know every tool perfectly, but you do need to be comfortable learning, adapting, and solving small tech issues independently.

Preferred Experience

Teaching experience is strongly preferred, although not always mandatory. We especially value experience in:

Teaching English to adults
Teaching online
Teaching upper-intermediate or advanced learners
Business English
Corporate English
Conversation-based classes
Pronunciation and fluency development
Grammar taught in context
Small group classes
Personalised lesson planning
Supporting students who lack confidence when speaking

Formal teaching qualifications are welcome, but we also care deeply about your teaching presence, communication style, preparation, empathy, and commitment.

This Role May Be a Great Fit for You If...

  • Truly enjoy teaching English.
  • Care about your students' confidence, not just their accuracy.
  • Prepare classes with intention.
  • Can adapt your teaching to different personalities and goals.
  • Enjoy working with adults and professionals.
  • Are reliable with your schedule.
  • Can commit to at least 8 months.
  • Are comfortable using digital tools.
  • Communicate clearly and warmly.
  • Want to be part of a school with a meaningful educational philosophy.
  • See teaching as a human experience, not just a job.
  • Believe that both native and non-native teachers can bring valuable perspectives to language learning.

This Role Is Probably Not for You If...

We want to be very clear and transparent from the beginning.

  • You are only looking for something temporary for a few weeks.
  • You cannot commit to at least 8 months.
  • Your schedule changes frequently.
  • You cannot offer availability during our high-demand hours.
  • You are uncomfortable using basic digital tools.
  • You struggle with Zoom, Google Workspace, or online teaching platforms.
  • You do not have stable internet or a quiet teaching space.
  • You prefer to improvise every class without structure.
  • You do not enjoy receiving feedback.
  • You are not interested in following a school methodology.
  • You are juggling too many projects and may need to leave after a short time.
  • You are looking for random hours outside the times we actually need.
  • You see this only as a temporary side project with no real commitment.
  • You are not a native English speaker and do not have a certified C1 or C2 level of English.

At Habla Bonito, we care deeply about consistency. Our students deserve teachers who are present, reliable, and committed to their learning journey.
