Teach in China – July 2026

A Fully Supported, Two‑Week International Teaching Experience for U.S. Educators

AESA Global invites U.S. public‑school educators to apply for an immersive two‑week teaching opportunity in China during July 2026. This program is designed for teachers who want to expand their global perspective, deepen their instructional practice, and experience education in a new cultural context—all while having full travel and living support.

What You’ll Do

During this two‑week program, you’ll teach STEAM with integrated English to Grades 5–9 in one of AESA Global’s partner schools across Shandong and/or Shaanxi Province. Potential locations include Jinan, Qingdao, Yantai, and Xi’an. Your Monday–Friday schedule includes about six hours of instruction and hands‑on activities each day, with weekends free to explore and experience local culture.

In addition to classroom teaching, you’ll deliver engaging, age‑appropriate lessons, lead project‑based, hands‑on learning, foster interactive discussion and student collaboration, and participate in outdoor or movement‑based activities. You’ll also collaborate with fellow educators and local partners and serve as a professional and cultural representative of U.S. public education throughout your time in China.
