Primary Focus: Public Speaking & Communication | Secondary Focus: English Support & Parent Enquiry Calls
ACROBO, a brand of Schoolola Pty Ltd, is seeking an energetic and engaging English Tutor & Speaking Coach to work with students in Grades 2 to 8.
The primary focus of this role is public speaking, communication and confidence-building. You will coach students to become clear, expressive and confident speakers through structured lessons involving public speaking, storytelling, presentations, persuasive speaking, discussion and performance.
The role will also include some English tutoring and a small amount of parent enquiry and enrolment follow-up calls.
As ACROBO continues to grow, you will also have the prospect to contribute ideas and feedback that help shape our Speaking and English programs.
Key Responsibilities
- Deliver high-energy, engaging and structured Speaking and Communication classes for students in Grades 2–8.

- Build student confidence in public speaking, storytelling, presentations, persuasive speaking and impromptu speaking.
- Help students organise their thoughts and communicate ideas clearly and confidently.
- Facilitate discussions and help students strengthen reasoning, vocabulary and argument structure.
- Provide individual coaching and constructive feedback so students demonstrate visible improvement over time.
- Create a positive and inspiring classroom environment where students feel comfortable speaking and participating.

- Support students with English skills, including vocabulary, comprehension, writing, grammar and verbal expression where required.
- Encourage positive values including confidence, empathy, kindness,

This may include
- Calling parents who have enquired about ACROBO programs.
- Explaining the Speaking and English programs in a clear and friendly manner.

- Following up trial classes, assessments or enquiries.
- Answering basic questions about classes, learning outcomes and enrolment.
