NIS – Nazarbayev Intellectual Schools
Teach Away is proud to collaborate with Nazarbayev Intellectual Schools (NIS), a network of schools for exceptional students, as a recruitment partner. Teachers are offered highly competitive salary and benefits packages along with the opportunity to live at the crossroads of Europe and Asia and explore this vast, little-traveled country.
Nazarbayev Intellectual Schools (NIS) are an initiative of the government of Kazakhstan intended to educate the future intellectual leaders of the country. This network of elementary and secondary schools teaches students in a trilingual environment of Kazakh, Russian, and English.
NIS accepts talented, motivated students, with the aim of developing them into critical thinkers and independent learners. NIS schools are located throughout Kazakhstan, with new campuses opening due to rapid expansion throughout 2014 and 2015. As a result, NIS is recruiting experienced teachers for the opportunity to become part of their educational initiative.
