Online English Lesson Content Developer

About the Role

Novakid is an English language school for children aged 4–12. We are looking for a Content Writer to join our Content team. We’re looking for someone creative, energetic and full of ideas - someone who can turn learning objectives into lessons that children genuinely want to take part in. Our lessons need to be more than correct. They need to be fun, intuitive, engaging and effective. You’ll be creating online English learning content for children, working across different age groups, levels and projects. You may be developing a new lesson one day, improving an existing course the next, testing a new activity format, or working on a completely different Content project. We need someone who enjoys that variety and is comfortable moving quickly between tasks.

What you’ll be doing

• Design and develop fun, engaging and age-appropriate online English lessons for children
• Turn learning objectives into clear, intuitive activities that encourage students to speak, think, interact and participate
• Create lessons with clear and measurable learning outcomes
• Build content with strong pacing, scaffolding and progression
• Make sure lessons are appropriate for the student’s age, English level and cognitive development
• Create activities, exercises, assessments and supporting content across different Novakid products
• Review and improve existing lessons based on feedback, observations and performance
• Take part in content reviews and give constructive feedback to other writers
• Work closely with Methodology, Proofreading, Design, Production and other Content colleagues
• Contribute ideas for new formats, activities and ways of making our lessons more engaging
• Support pilots, new courses and other Content projects when needed
• Stay up to date with developments in education, children’s digital learning and EdTech.

AI is part of how we work

We use AI extensively across the Content team, and we expect our Content Writers to be comfortable doing the same. You should be able to:

• use AI as part of your everyday content creation workflow
• use it to brainstorm, research, adapt and improve content
• experiment with new AI tools and ways of working
• critically review AI-generated material rather than accepting it at face value
• understand when AI can save time and when human judgement is essential
• be curious about how AI can help us create better learning experiences.

You don’t need to know every AI tool already, but you do need to be open, confident and eager to learn.
