Teach English in Jordan

The capital city of Jordan, Amman, has much to offer in both teaching jobs and a social life once the work day is complete. The government has recently taken a stance aimed at reforming the education system, in order to prevent poverty and enhance the economy and general quality of life. As a result of this educational reform, opportunities to teach in Amman are on the rise. Teachers interested in teaching subjects such as math, chemistry, English, and music teachers are all in high demand in Amman. In addition to having knowledge of any of the latter subjects, being a foreign teacher will also help your chances of getting a teaching job in Amman, as the education reform is aimed at teaching cultural awareness and understanding too.

Experience a city like no other by teaching abroad in Petra. Known as the “Rose City” because of the red rock in which it is carved into, this archeological attraction of a city draws visitors from all over the world. As a UNESCO world heritage site, since 1985, Petra has no shortage of sites to see. These ancient sites can be worked into your lesson plan, making the educational experience for both you and your students that much richer.

Zarqa is the second largest city in Jordan, and is slowly growing into an industrial city. Zarqa is home to the only oil refinery plant in Jordan, and it also happens to offer an affordable cost of living.

Three weeks volunteering in Siem Reap

I spent three weeks volunteering at Salariin Kampuchea Learning Center in Siem Reap, where I helped teach English to younger students and supported the development of their social media presence. It was one of the most enriching experiences I’ve ever had. Some days were more challenging than others—adapting to a new environment and finding ways to communicate across cultures. But what I’ll carry with me, more than anything, is the deep sense of connection I felt with the people. I can confidently say I’ve grown and learned so much, and that’s something I’ll always be grateful for. Living and working within the local community gave me a complete perspective shift. I was struck by their warmth and generosity, and the quiet strength with which they face life. From the very beginning, I felt welcomed. The children, the staff, and my host family made me feel included from the start, making it easy to feel at home throughout my time there

The most wholesome experience

The programme insured that whilst getting my teaching experience, I learnt loads about the history of the children in this area. It has been the most eye opening experience and I am so grateful to have been part of it, I will be back!! The team were super supportive and ensured we were safe at all times. This was my first time solo travelling and I felt confident to flourish and be adventurous in the beautiful South Africa!
