Opportunities with English-Speaking Union

About

The English-Speaking Union's mission is to equip young people with the communication skills and cross-cultural understanding they need to thrive and build a more collaborative world.

We work with young people and their teachers to improve oracy skills and cross-cultural understanding, particularly in areas of disadvantage. We run fun, games-led debate and public speaking curricula and workshops which encourage students to discuss a wide range of topical issues with an open mind. We guide schools on using oracy in the classroom and on setting up and maintaining their own debate clubs.

Nationally and internationally, we also run public speaking and debating competitions to hone the skills we provide, and offer a variety of cultural exchanges for students, teachers and professionals alike to build relationships and share ideas across communities and countries.

Volunteers are at the heart of our work, supporting our young peoples growth and development serving as volunteer judges during our competitions.
