English Literacy Teacher

Elementary schools in Palau are looking for individuals with a passion for literacy to support young learners. A longstanding national education priority has been to improve English reading and writing skills. Despite dedicated teachers, schools continue to face literacy challenges, such as limited resources, varying home language environments, and pandemic-era learning gaps.

Ministry of Education data show that many elementary grade students struggle to reach foundational reading benchmarks. With classrooms often stretched to full capacity, teachers welcome additional support in providing individualized attention and engaging learning experiences. Schools wish to expand the time and attention given to early readers, introduce practical literacy activities, and strengthen teacher confidence in student-centered approaches.

As an English Literacy Teacher, you will support students’ reading fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension while creating supplementary teaching materials tailored to local needs alongside local educators. Together, you will strengthen local English proficiency, the students’ readiness for secondary studies, and educational outcomes aligned with Palau’s national development goals.

You will also contribute to lasting partnerships that encourage continued innovation and shared learning among teachers and families.
