About The Project
Moldovan teachers and students know that learning a foreign language can open doors of opportunity. You are encouraged to share your skills as a native English speaker with these motivated learners!
As Moldova’s economy continues to grow and diversify, there is a critical need for youth to develop foreign language skills with the support of native speakers. Such proficiency especially in English enables youth to obtain competitive jobs and make international connections that will advance both their own and their country’s prospects on the global stage. To meet the Ministry of Education’s goal of a population trained and confident in English language skills, Moldova is committed to providing high-quality English instruction to students at the primary, middle, and secondary school levels across the country. While the motivation is there to provide such support to students, schools lack sufficient educators with the necessary capacity in language and in teaching methods to advance student proficiency in English.
As an English Teacher, you will collaborate with local educators to deliver the national English language curriculum in a way that encourages retention. Through engaging clubs and camp activities, you and your colleagues will encourage students to practice English, building their confidence in using the language. You will also support professional development opportunities for teachers, introducing new methods of instruction and fostering knowledge exchanges.
Activities
How you and the community will make an impact together:
Plan and teach engaging English language classes to primary, middle, and/or secondary school students.
Design, adapt, and pilot new English teaching methods or materials.
Encourage and provide training on the use of digital resources.
Facilitate English clubs for students to practice English in and outside school settings, including language contests, games, and theatrical plays.
Organize and facilitate summer camps for additional English practice.
Promote communities of practice exchanges and professional development opportunities among teachers.
You may also work on additional projects that meet the community’s interests and priorities, such as English language clubs for adults.
Required Skills
Qualified candidates will have one or more of the following criteria:
Bachelor's degree in any discipline.
Language: There are no pre-requisite language requirements for this position.
