Teach For Lebanon Recruiting its Sixth Cohort
Do you believe that education is the way to build a better Lebanon? Are you a fresh graduate who is willing to dedicate two years to support children's education? What if one of your student was the leader of tomorrow?
What about giving yourself the chance to share in building the future of children in your country and get a full scholarship to pursue your masters degree? We, at Teach for Lebanon (TFL), can give you this opportunity.
Teach For Lebanon is a Lebanese NGO which was established in 2008, when Ali Dimashkieh, deeply concerned about educational inequality in Lebanon, learned about a new international education reform initiative called Teach For All, which has affiliates in 33 countries. After some study, Dimashkieh conceived a “Teach For-” initiative in Lebanon, and Teach for Lebanon was born. A bit over a year later, Teach for Lebanon sent its first newly trained cohort of Fellows off to teach in remote rural schools.
We recruit fresh graduates from different majors and train them through a six-week summer institute to be well prepared for the mission which is eliminating educational inequality in Lebanon while fostering youth leadership.
Our "Fellows" have impacted the lives of 4200 children at schools scattered all over Lebanon: Gebrayel, Bakhoun, Barsa, Maaroub, Arde, Ibrin, Kfarhazeer, douma, Saida, Ansar, Halba, Hasbaya, Rashaya, Abbasieh, Aley, Jounyeh and Sin El Fil.
TFL is recruiting now. If you think you might be interested in this mission, don’t hesitate to apply. Please visit our website www.teachforlebanon.org and fill in the application online. Please note that there will be two rounds for recruitment and selection. The deadline is Friday, May 2, 2014.
