About This Opportunity

The Fulbright English Teaching Assistant Program in Mauritius aims to strengthen educational and cultural relationships between the United States and Mauritius. U.S. participants will meet students from various cultural and ethnic backgrounds. ETAs spend approximately 20 hours per week assisting and supporting English secondary school teachers 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. ETAs are also encouraged to create their own projects with institutions or communities. The program provides a 9-month grant beginning in January 2027 and ending in November 2027. A mandatory in-country group orientation will be provided by the U.S. Embassy in Port Louis around the second week of January 2027.
