Teaching at WEA Sydney
Are you an experienced teacher with a love of teaching? Do you have a lot of knowledge to share with eager adult learners? Consider teaching at WEA Sydney! WEA Sydney covers a large range of courses including:
- History (Ancient, Australian, European and World)
- Humanities (Literature & Writing, Science & Technology, Philosophy & Religion and Politics & Society)
- Languages (Beginners, Elementary, Intermediate, Advanced and Specialist courses)
- Leisure & Culture (Hobbies and Leisure, Gardening, Travel & Culture and Wellness)

We welcome new tutors to our friendly teaching community where you can design your own courses in a community of professional educators who are passionate about delivering quality educational experiences to a student body who are inquisitive and appreciative. You can nominate your own teaching schedule and your own mode of delivery and you are supported by a small team of dedicated professionals. Apart from a small number of VET courses we do not offer diploma or certificate courses. We also do not offer HSC or school courses nor do we offer first year university courses or tutoring for school or universities students.
We cater for all adults, however, the majority of our students are in the 60+ age group and are interested in broadening their education out of interest and who have the time and the discretionary income to do so. We have classrooms in WEA House at 72 Bathurst Street in Sydney. Each classroom has a laptop, projector and screen for face-to-face teaching in rooms with lecture-style seating or with tables and chairs. Alternatively, you can teach remotely via Zoom or you can teach in a Hybrid style (physically in at WEA House with an in-class audience and remotely on Zoom).
