While SpeechDojo consists of several teams to fulfill this mission, the Classroom team is made up of instructors who deliver virtual public speaking lessons to elementary and junior high school students. Since SpeechDojo’s establishment in 2018, the Classroom team has taught in 100 classes in Alberta and has reached 2,432 students.
Classroom instructors teach 2 elementary/junior high classes per year, one in the fall (September-January) and one in the winter semester (February-May). Classes happen weekly over Google Meet, last approximately 20-45 minutes, and take place during the school day. For this reason, our applicants must ensure they have spare time during usual elementary/junior high school hours (8 AM-4 PM). The time commitment is approximately 3 hours per week, including preparation, delivery, and attending weekly meetings. As part of the Classroom team, instructors also have an active role in improving SpeechDojo’s curriculum and practices.
