Primary Teacher

Teaching with Participate Learning is more than a job opportunity. It provides personal growth and development while also giving the opportunity to teach full-time in the U.S. Education system. International teachers provide authentic and effective learning experiences for all students while preparing them to be active citizens of the world.

 In an exciting collaboration with several districts in North Carolina and Virginia, we are hiring creative and dedicated professionals who believe all children can be successful. You will be a cultural ambassador for your country, sharing local traditions and inspiring a love for the wider world in U.S. students. 

Poe Magnet Elementary is a small GT/AIG Basics school just outside of downtown Raleigh. With only about 400 students, we are able to provide a close-knit family environment where each child builds positive relationships with caring adults. Our core values guide our mission to inspire and cultivate confident learners prepared to embrace the challenges of the future. 

North Carolina is renowned for its incredible natural beauty and vibrant cities. With the Blue Ridge Mountains in the west, coastal beach towns in the east, and 41 state parks, there are many places for families and solo adventurers to explore. Raleigh, the state capital, is located in the center of the state and is part of the “Triangle,” an area recently ranked as the #2 place in the country to live by the U.S. News and World Report. Charlotte, the state’s largest city, is home to several major sports teams and a variety of museums to explore.

We are looking for passionate teachers committed to sharing their culture, embracing U.S. culture, and increasing mutual understanding between U.S. citizens and citizens of their home country.
