Lebanon gripped our hearts and opened our eyes to new possibilities.

What are the teaching and team time structures like?

Teachers spend an average of seven to fifteen hours teaching morning and afternoon classes Monday through Friday. They also enjoy connecting with the rest of the faculty, most of whom speak English well.

Teams meet weekly to enjoy a meal together, plan, and share encouragement. Informally, teams get together often to share life and meals together or spend time with local friends.

What does ongoing professional/personal development look like?

Our teaching specialist guides teachers in their professional development. Teachers discuss what they’re learning about once a month at a team meeting, and they often support each other by collaborating on teaching ideas to help students.

What is housing like?

Teachers live in comfortable and spacious apartments within walking distance of teammates and the school. Generally, single teachers share an apartment with another single teammate of the same gender.

What is it like to raise a family in Lebanon?

To date, we haven’t had any families on our team in Lebanon, but there are other foreign families in the area raising their children. Kids are a great connecting point for many local families and would open doors for great community-building opportunities.
