Bilingual Actor - Korean - English

About this role

We are seeking actors to appear in our app-based video lessons as language teachers (watch all Example Videos below).

In these video lessons, you'll be seated behind a table facing a camera and deliver pre-written scripts explaining language concepts and phrases for learners.

While these lessons are not live, they are interactive.

Scripts also contain questions to the user and a variety of responses based on their performance.

When a user goes through a video lesson, the video recording of your teaching will play, along with opportunities for the app user to practice the language you are teaching.

• What you’ll be doing
• Read scripts from the teleprompter in both Korean and English to teach English to Korean speakers.
• Portray a professional in a different industry other than education who is excited that their friend has decided to learn a new language (think helpful, friendly vibes rather than a strict teacher vibe).
