Work With Us – Teach in Bhutan

“My first exposure to the Bhutanese educational culture came the second I stepped through class IX A’s door. There was a shuffle of chairs against the wooden floor, every student popped out of their seat, and at the top of their lungs and in perfect unison they all yelled, “Good morning, sir!”- Nick Morris, High School teacher in Khaling

 

Take your teaching career to new heights by applying to teach in Bhutan! Through this life-changing experience teachers will have the opportunity to make an incredible impact on the lives of their students and on the communities in which they live.

This unique experience may have teachers working in developing urban areas or in secluded country schools, virtually untouched by modern world. Realistically, there are few opportunities like this left in the world.

 

Professionally, teachers will have the opportunity to develop teaching techniques and classroom management skills, all while integrating the Bhutanese concept of Gross National Happiness. This is a chance to work in an education system that is in the midst of an exciting and innovative transformation, as the Ministry of Education works to transition to a more interactive, thoughtful and participatory system of education.
