Moraph for Good / Volunteer / Opportunities / Fluent instructor
Opportunity · Open to everyone
Fluent instructor.
Teach free Fluent sessions on budgeting, banking, credit, borrowing, tax time and scams, for the people a library, school or community organization serves.
What you do
- Teach the Fluent modules a host has chosen, from the published materials, prepared for the country you teach in
- Explain how things work: accounts and fees, credit reports, interest, tax credits, common scams
- Point people to the free public services that exist where they live, such as free tax help and nonprofit credit counseling
- Tell the Moraph lead which questions came up, so the materials improve
What you need
- Work experience with money and the systems around it: for example banking, credit unions, accounting, financial counseling or free tax help
- Comfort explaining things plainly to a room, or to a group online
- Willingness to keep to the materials and to say “I don’t know” when that is the answer
What you won’t do
- Give advice about anyone’s own money, debts or taxes
- Promote any financial product or firm, including your employer’s or a Moraph client’s
- Collect the names, contact details or financial details of the people who attend
- Where
- In person at the host’s venue, or online on an account the host or Moraph manages.
- Checks
- An identity check, references, and a background check where local law allows for roles with young people or adults at risk. Checks are finished before your first session.
- Training
- The short training on the rules every volunteer takes, then a walk-through of the modules you will teach with the Moraph lead for the series.
- Time
- You tell us what you can give. A series is planned in writing with the host, so you know the dates before you agree to it.
- Open to
- Moraph colleagues and vetted members of the public, 18 or over, in the ten countries where Moraph has an office.
The rules apply to every role. Nothing to sell, strictly nonpartisan, explain never advise, no personal details, safeguarding and conflicts. The rules in full.
