Project Description
Are you passionate about the English language and the opportunities it provides for students? Come build the capacity of English teachers in Colombia.
English proficiency is widely seen in Colombia as a pathway to integral academic and professional opportunities. Yet challenges, including limited teacher capacity and classroom resources, continue to slow progress. Colombia’s National Bilingualism Program prioritizes English language learning, but there is a need to improve innovative teaching methodologies, classroom learning resources, and the know-how to integrate English into broader school activities. Outside the classroom, adults are eager to join English conversation clubs that support local economic needs or access to high education.
As a Vocational School English Education Teacher, you will strengthen English instruction in public schools and community settings. You will train teachers in a way that ignites their confidence in teaching and speaking English. Alongside school staff, you will support national priorities in education and workforce development.
