Elementary Teacher - North Carolina

Teaching with Participate Learning is more than a job opportunity. It provides personal growth and development while also giving the opportunity to teach full-time in the US Education system. International teachers provide authentic and effective learning experiences for all students while preparing them to be active citizens of the world.

In an exciting collaboration with several districts in North Carolina and Virginia, we are hiring creative and dedicated professionals who believe all children can be successful. You will be a cultural ambassador for your country, sharing local traditions and inspiring a love for the wider world in US students. 

North Carolina is renowned for its incredible natural beauty and vibrant cities. With the Blue Ridge Mountains in the west, coastal beach towns in the east, and 41 state parks, there are many places for families and solo adventurers to explore. Raleigh, the state capital, is located in the centre of the state and is part of the “Triangle,” an area recently ranked as the #2 place in the country to live by the U.S. News and World Report. Charlotte, the state’s largest city, is home to several major sports teams and a variety of museums to explore. 

We are looking for passionate teachers committed to sharing their culture, embracing U.S. culture, and increasing mutual understanding between U.S. citizens and citizens of their home country. 

All international candidates are required to apply directly with Participate Learning. Participate Learning has been an official BridgeUSA exchange visitor program with the US Department of State for more than 30 years and has helped more than 10,000 international educators experience teaching full-time in the US. Participate Learning is designated to screen, provide visa sponsorship, and support participants throughout their stay in the United States, in conjunction with their host school. Candidates must successfully complete Participate Learning’s application process to be considered for this position.
