Saskatchewan Association of International Languages

The Mini-Language Lessons Program is one of SAIL's strongest annual programs conducted between October and December (Fall Session) and January and March (Winter Session) every year, throughout Saskatchewan. This program provides opportunities for volunteer Language speakers (speakers of a language other than English or French) to teach in the Public, Catholic, and Fransaskois school systems, and allows students to experience a new Language and culture. The program allows school teachers to match multicultural education with existing curriculum in a direct and meaningful way for students. The Mini-Language Lessons Program hopes that the experience gained by students will contribute to the elimination of misunderstanding and racism through the promotion of cultural awareness and acceptance.

 

The Language instructors provide eight (8) hours of instruction on their language and various aspects of their culture. It is not necessary to have a professional teaching background, but applicants should have some experience in a teaching environment and/or working with children. Language instructors will be matched with a classroom teacher (or two) and receive an honorarium based on eight hours of instruction per classroom.
