Why Teach

Our teacher volunteers work directly toward advancing GLN’s mission as they deliver our language services to the community. We are extremely grateful for their contributions because without our dedicated teachers, we would not be able to offer affordable language classes in a wide array of languages.

Over the past five years GLN has engaged over 400 native speakers from more than 80 countries to teach their language and share their culture with others. Teaching with GLN is an enriching, rewarding and enjoyable experience. As a GLN teacher volunteer you will have the opportunity to:

  • Share your language and culture with highly motivated and passionate members of the DC-metro community.
  • Meet new people, socialize, and expand your personal and professional networks.
  • Gain new skills and experience and build your resume.
  • Apply and strengthen your language skills.
  • Join an open, tolerant and diverse community of internationally-minded people from various ethnic, educational and professional backgrounds.
  • Give back to the community.
  • Get ‘priority registration’ for a GLN class.

    • All GLN teachers are volunteers. No prior teaching experience necessary!
