The English Language Fellow Program is seeking experienced U.S. TESOL professionals to participate in paid teaching fellowships at universities and other academic institutions around the world.

Fellow projects are 10-month paid teaching assignments for professionals with a graduate degree in English language teaching and two years’ classroom TESOL experience. In return, the program provides professionals with a platform to build skills that can greatly enhance their TESOL careers. We are recruiting for approximately 100 projects beginning in September 2018.
