- We are seeking actors to appear in our app-based video lessons as language teachers (watch the sample video below under each role for reference).
- 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.
