Help Immigrants Change Their Lives Through a Free English Tutoring Program
Who We Are
Redwood ESL is a growing nonprofit that provides free online English tutoring to immigrants across the United States. We recruit and train volunteer tutors, match them with English learners, and create meaningful one-on-one connections that help people build confidence, find better jobs, and thrive in their communities.
We’re a small, collaborative team with big goals—and we’re just getting started.

You live in the U.S. and enjoy interviewing applicants, solving scheduling puzzles, and keeping lots of moving pieces running smoothly. You’re comfortable making logical and thoughtful decisions, communicating with kindness, and using technology to stay organized.
