Presently we are aware of limited contact with individuals and families from ethnic communities in seeking advice on energy related matters. Your role would involve working with energy advisors from the Dundee Energy Efficiency Advice Project (DEEAP) to make ethnic communities aware of the services DEEAP provides. You would benefit from being associated with a well respected and dedicated team working to increase/achieve warm, dry, affordable homes. We would encourage you to undertake the City & Guilds qualification in "Energy Awareness" of which we would meet the cost. This would allow you to pass on your knowledge and understanding of energy issues and allow resolution of such matters. Importantly, you would enable individuals and families to reduce fuel spend, enhance insulation levels, maximise household income, register families for fuel discounted tariffs and assist with grant applications.

The main task is to teach/tutor a small group of adults whose first language is not English. Volunteer Tutor training workshops take place regularly. A mentor will advise and support a new volunteer tutor. Qualified or trainee teachers of any subject are welcome, ideal for someone with a TEFL certificate or degree who would like some teaching experience, but friendliness, patience & respect for other cultures are as important as qualifications.

Mentors spend one hour per week supporting an adult from an ethnic minority community in the areas of language development, employability, education or personal development. Mentor training will be provided via What’s app /Zoom/Skype. The mentors will be matched with a suitable mentee via a conference call. The weekly mentoring can be over the phone, email or zoom/skype.
