Teach English. Build Relationships. Improve Lives.
At ELIC, we go where others cannot go. At this very moment, we have English teachers serving with integrity, passion, and purpose across Asia, the Middle East, and North Africa.
Why
ELIC?
Since 1981, more than 1.3 million students in 15 countries have been impacted by 12,000 ELIC teachers.
Learning English—the business language of the world—provides a tangible advantage to students during their university studies and opens horizons to future careers. It also has a positive ripple effect on their friends, families, and neighbors as these students engage and inspire their communities with the hope of new opportunities.
Types of Programs
Short-Term
ELIC’s summer program is designed to provide you with opportunities to pour into the lives of students from around the world by teaching conversational English.
Never taught before? That’s okay! ELIC provides training and coaching that will ensure you feel comfortable and confident before you ever step foot in the classroom.
Opportunities range anywhere from 4 to 6 weeks and the experience can be utilized to fulfill an internship, practicum requirements, or just provide you with the opportunity to engage with students in a way that creates lifelong impact.
Long-Term
Start with a year and stay until you feel it’s time to leave.
Whatever stage of life you’re in, there’s a place for you to make a difference through teaching, leadership, and building relationships in the local community. Invest a season of your life with a team of committed teachers with a desire to impact the future.
We are honored to have the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of students. English is the business language of the world, and students from our classrooms use their skills to gain overseas jobs as well as earn positions of leadership in business, government, and virtually any other profession that they pursue. We are proud to connect ELIC teachers with future leaders where we serve.
