  Description

  Looking for individuals that want to explore, mentor and experience Jordan. My name is Megan and I am the Academic Director. I am an American myself and during my vacation I became employed by this amazing International school. Currently, I am the only Native English speaking American on staff but would like to host several candidates this year. I am looking for individuals who would find speaking in English and playing games with students fun. We work Sunday to Thursday 8 am until 2pm. We offer furnished accommodations with WiFi, food and excursions are included. Would you like to see Petra? Sprawling cities? Waterfalls? Please reach out because your next adventure awaits and we can’t wait to host your stay. Stays are flexible from 1 month to 3 months. You don’t have to be a credentialed teacher; just have a desire to work with children, speak your native language and share your culture. Jordan is one of the most welcoming countries I’ve ever been to and I am happy to provide you with more information.
