Spirit partners with accredited K-12 schools across the USA to help match them with qualified international teachers for a period of 1-3 years. Spirit’s international teachers bring both their expertise in teaching and the rich history of their home culture to the Host School and community. Formal cross-cultural events and virtual classroom exchanges are arranged during the program to familiarize the school and community with the teacher’s home culture and its citizens. The J-1 Teacher Program is a wonderful way for American Host Schools to bring the world home to their students and communities!
Placements for the 2019-2020 school year are available for experienced international teachers with at least two years teaching full-time in the areas of Spanish, Mandarin, or Special Education. Accredited K-12 schools in the USA interested in hosting an international teacher are also encouraged to contact us for more information at teacher@spiritexchange.com.
