Adult Education Instructor

Adult education instructors teach and train adults in a variety of settings, such as colleges, community centres, workplaces, and online platforms. They may cover academic subjects like English or maths, vocational skills such as IT or construction, or personal development topics including health and wellbeing. The role involves planning lessons, assessing learners progress, adapting materials for different learning needs, and sometimes helping students work towards qualifications. Adult education instructors need strong communication skills, patience, and the ability to motivate learners from diverse backgrounds. Many instructors work part-time or on fixed-term contracts, and the work can be very rewarding for those who enjoy helping others reach their goals.
