The Ayliha Academy is a non-profit school located in a middle-class Palestinian neighborhood in East Jerusalem. The purpose of our school is to break the traditional Palestinian educational mold, by offering an open-minded, environmentally conscious, student-centric, English based curriculum based on modern pedagogy. We have just finished a successful pilot year, and are looking forward to introducing smaller class sizes, science and math lessons grounded in environmental sustainability, and the International Baccalaureate teaching program in the coming years. The school currently enrolls 120-140 students in grades 1-9. We are looking for qualified, dedicated teachers who are interested in volunteering their time working to help the Palestinian children.
We are seeking teachers who have a bachelor’s degree and are TEFL certified. As our curriculum focuses on environmental sustainability any knowledge or experience in this field is a plus. The school year starts in September and teachers will be expected to teach 20 classes a week Monday-Thursday and on Saturday. Class sizes will range between 20 students. The Ahliya Academy will arrange free housing and Arabic lessons for teachers.
Applicants should send resume and a cover letter via e-mail.
