At school pickup, another parent asks how your daughter learned “apple” and “blue” in English. You show her a lesson, then tell us what she asked.
Tatako is looking for Brand Ambassadors: parents, teachers and caregivers who use Tatako, believe in it and like to talk about it. You share your own experience in your community and online, bring back what families tell you, and create posts or short videos when the Ambassador Program Manager sends a brief. It is project work that fits around your life.
About Tatako
Tatako is a first-words app for parents raising a child with two languages. Parent and child do each lesson together: it takes about five minutes, there is nothing to read, and a small round octopus keeps them both company. He has eight arms, no socks, and usually loses count at seven.
The language of home stays the language of home. Tatako adds a second one on top, at a child’s pace, from the very first words. A guide voice tells the parent what to do next and can be switched off at any time. The parent leads the child through three small steps: Hear it, say it. Touch it. Name it. In the last step the picture comes back without the word, and the child names it first.
We started with English: first words and phrases, from “hello” and “mommy” to colors, animals and what the teacher says in class. Your child learns English, and the prompts, the menus and every step of guidance are in your family’s own language. Tatako works on the web, on Apple and on Android.
The role
- Remote project work, open to candidates anywhere in the world
- Working English and the language of your community
- An agreement signed before you start: your work is made for Tatako, Inc. and its rights go to the company in writing
By the end of your first project, families around you know Tatako from your own words, the team has heard their questions, and your posts follow the brand and safety rules without a correction.
What you will do
- Share your real experience with Tatako with parents, teachers and caregivers: at school, in parent groups and on your own social channels.
- Show other families how a lesson works, from the three steps to the guide voice that speaks their own language.
- Bring back what you hear: questions, doubts, ideas and stories, in short notes to the Ambassador Program Manager.
- Create posts, photos or short videos when briefed, with the disclosure each platform asks for.
- Follow the brand guide and the child safety rules: no child on camera without a parent’s written consent, and never a child’s full name or school.
- Join ambassador calls to hear what is new at Tatako, share what works in your community and learn from other ambassadors.
- Point families to help when they need it, so every question about accounts or lessons reaches the family support team.
What you bring
- 1+ years of active involvement in a parent, school or caregiver community, online or in person.
- Your own experience with Tatako as a parent, teacher or caregiver, and honest opinions about it.
- Ease talking with other parents and teachers, in person and online, without ever pushing.
- A presence people trust: school groups, parent circles, a library club or your own social channels.
- Basic skills with a phone camera and simple editing apps such as CapCut or the editor inside Instagram.
- Respect for privacy: you never share another family’s child or story without permission.
Bonus points
- You speak several languages and move easily between communities.
- You have run a parent group, a reading circle or a school event.
Why you will love it
- Help families raising kids with two languages find something that works for them.
- Project work that fits around your family, your job and your week.
- A direct line to the team: what you hear in your community shapes what Tatako makes next.
