Teach IELTS Speaking Parts 1, 2 and 3 through structured practice, fluency development, pronunciation work, vocabulary expansion and feedback linked to public band-descriptor criteria.

Support EAL/ESL learners who need stronger foundational English before intensive IELTS preparation.

Provide clear written and verbal feedback that helps learners understand why an answer or response loses marks and what to improve next.

Maintain academic integrity and do not complete assessed coursework, application essays or other submitted work on the learner’s behalf.

A recognised degree in English, English Language, Linguistics, TESOL, Education, Applied Linguistics or a closely related field.

A recognised English-language teaching qualification such as CELTA, DELTA, TESOL, TEFL, PGCE/QTS in English or another substantial professional teaching credential.

Minimum 2 years of relevant English-language teaching, IELTS preparation, EAL/ESL tutoring or comparable experience.

Strong practical knowledge of IELTS test format, question types, timing and public band-descriptor criteria.

Ability to teach all four IELTS skills or to clearly identify any skill areas outside the tutor’s verified expertise.

Excellent spoken and written English with strong grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation and academic-writing knowledge.

Ability to diagnose language gaps and create a targeted learning plan based on current level, target band and available preparation time.

Strong professional communication, punctuality, safeguarding awareness and academic-integrity standards.

Legal authorisation to provide private tutoring in the UAE and a valid MOHRE Private Tutor Work Permit, or eligibility to obtain the permit before accepting assignments.

Reliable personal transportation and willingness to travel to students’ homes or approved learning venues in Ras Al Khaimah.

Preferred Experience

Strong skills in speaking fluency, pronunciation, academic vocabulary and essay feedback.

Experience teaching IELTS Academic and/or General Training.

Experience using IELTS public band descriptors to structure feedback.

Experience balancing language development with test strategy when learners have limited preparation time.

Experience tracking progress through targeted practice rather than relying only on full mock tests.
