Because an hour that changes her week should count for you too.
What you’ll actually do: talk with one adult learner, 30 to 45 minutes a week, about work, interviews and everyday life. No lesson plans, no grading.
Conversation practice · not teachingMost volunteer hours are self-reported. Yours will be logged, reviewed and signed.
Attendance is recorded in the platform session by session, TEEI staff review the record, and your statement carries a live verification link. For college students and professionals who need documented hours, that is how you earn service hours online that no one has to take your word for.

Beyond the hours
Hours that read like experience.
Volunteer experience for resume purposes is only worth what you can say about it. Here you can say something specific: you helped an adult learner practise English for interviews, work and daily life, one-to-one, week after week.
