Schools and Organizations for Experienced Educators
Teaching in a broad-curriculum school abroad is a great option if you're a certified teacher looking for something a little different. There are many American and international schools in Asia looking for qualified teachers to join their staff either short- or long-term. The three main types of American and international schools abroad are:
Schools Affiliated with the Department of State
These schools are funded in part by the U.S. Department of State. They hire staff on a school-by-school basis, not through government channels. School curricula are usually American-style, but the student body is international. For more information, contact:
Office of Overseas Schools
Room 245, SA-29
Department of State
Washington, DC 20522-2902
(703) 875-7800
Educators interested in summer service opportunities should contact the following department:

New York, New York 10017

For more information, contact the following address and request the booklet called "Overseas Employment for Educators."
