About this opportunity

The Fulbright English Teaching Assistant Program in Madagascar aims to strengthen educational and cultural relationships between the United States and Madagascar. ETAs spend approximately 20 hours per week assisting and supporting English language teachers and trainers and working on additional projects. ETA roles may include giving presentations on topics related to the United States, preparing classroom activities, modeling interactive activities with partner teachers, and encouraging students to communicate in English. ETAs may assist in a variety of academic formats such as one-on-one tutoring or co-teaching large groups and different classes with different levels. ETAs are also encouraged to create their own projects with institutions or communities, including environmental clubs, English clubs, job/education fairs, girls' groups, book clubs, mentorship programs, holidays, debate clubs, etc. The program runs for 9 months from October 2026 to July 2027. Selected applicants will be placed in the country's capital city of Antananarivo and other regions at public high schools where the U.S. Embassy routinely conducts English teaching-related programs.
