💙 [REMOTE] Accent & Pronunciation & Intonation – Adult & Online English Group Classes

💙 Who we are

Immigo is a venture-backed startup helping English learners speak with confidence through peer-to-peer experiences. While there are 1.5B English learners around the world, there isn’t an effective yet affordable way to practice and improve their English. One-on-one classes are expensive, one-to-many classes don’t give you enough time to speak and self-learning apps/MOOCs don’t really hold you accountable.

With Immigo, learners can quickly find the right, reliable group of peers to practice with at a much lower cost. And we are starting that journey through our unique “group classes” & “speaking clubs.”

The next 10 years of learning a language will move beyond just staring at disjointed videos or gamified apps with vocabularies. Effective learning happens with live human interactions that are brought together with the same mission of learning and growing – no matter where you are.

This is an opportunity to join an early-stage startup as one of the first employees and have work that directly impacts the future of learning a language. And together, our team is driven by a greater mission to democratize access to socioeconomic mobility through English learning.

📈 Traction

• Top company/graduates of Techstars Boulder ’21 (acceptance rate <1%.)
• Helped thousands of learners from 120+ countries within just a year and are growing quickly.
• Raised seed round from world-class investors, including Greylock, Reach Capital, Matterscale Ventures, Techstars (and Techstars Ventures for follow-on investment as a top company), and Lombardstreet Ventures.

💪 What you will do

As an English Teacher, you will teach: Pronunciation, Accent & Intonation to adult students. Our students are incredibly motivated.
