We are currently seeking experienced ESL teachers to work as raters for our spoken English tests. Our tests are fully automated and scored with speech recognition technology, but collecting human ratings is an integral part of our test development and validation process.

Human raters are able to work flexible hours entirely off-site, from home or wherever they have internet access. This position is project-based and the workload will vary considerably throughout the year.

Successful raters should expect to be available for about 15 hours of rating per week, as needed, and will always be consulted prior to beginning work on a new project. The duration of each project may vary from a couple of weeks to a couple of months.

The first project will begin in early June 2023, with a projected duration of about 2 months.

Compensation:

• Training hours as well as actual rating hours are paid at a rate of $25/hour.

Note:

• Candidates must successfully pass the training session to qualify. Those who do not successfully pass training will not continue to the project.
• This is an hourly paid, non-benefit eligible, part-time position.

Compensation at Pearson is influenced by a wide array of factors including but not limited to skill set, level of experience, and specific location. As required by the Colorado, California, Washington State, New York State, and New York City laws, the pay range for this position is as follows:

The minimum full-time salary range is $25.00/hr
