Through the U.S. Department of State’s English Language Programs, the world is your classroom. Since 1969, the English Language Programs have sent thousands of highly qualified and experienced U.S. educators in the field of teaching English to speakers of other languages (TESOL) abroad to assist U.S. embassies in delivering and maintaining quality English language programs.

These programs are competitive and challenging, and the professionals selected to participate represent the best of the U.S. TESOL community. Program participants have the opportunity to gain deeper experience in areas such as teacher training and curriculum development, create innovative cultural programming, and hone other skills that can greatly enhance their TESOL careers.

The 2017-2018 application is now open. Applications are accepted and reviewed on a rolling basis until all projects are filled, though you are encouraged to apply early in order to have the best chance of being considered for all available projects. Candidates that apply before the priority application deadline of November 30 are the first to enter the project matching phase when it begins in January. Candidates that apply after the priority deadline will only be considered for projects that remain available at the time they enter the applicant pool.
