Ever thought about teaching Missionary Kids?...
The need and rewards are great!


ESSENTIAL EDUCATION - the daily need of missionary families

Several years ago, a major mission agency did a study on why missionaries go home. Children's issues, including children's education, was one of the most commonly stated reasons for families leaving the field prematurely.

The family headed overseas can be so focused on ministry strategies that before they get there, the mundane issue of how their children will be educated can get "lost in the shuffle." When the family gets off the plane, how to educate their children will be a daily issue. My privilege is to work practically on their behalf.

As God calls couples with children overseas, He cares very much about those children, as well as the parents' ministry. SEND International has a long history of providing quality teachers for MK schools or workers for agencies like SHARE that seek to help parents make good educational decisions. This commitment is a very important part of "providing cups of water" in Jesus name, "taking care of the stuff" for those whom He has plans to "provide a hope and a future."

A CALL FOR TEACHERS...

One or two years of your service could save a missionary's whole career. A teaching career overseas could give you unusual opportunities to influence the lives of young people forever.

If you are an elementary or secondary teacher, you could be actively involved in God's Great Commission by teaching missionary children, freeing their parents to be evangelists, Bible teachers, and church planters. In most schools, you would also be challenged as you teach English-speaking children from non-Christian business, professional, and diplomatic families.

SEND International is always recruiting for schools and teaching situations all over the world.

HOW AND WHO?

Most teachers at missionary children's schools go overseas with mission agencies like SEND International who handle their finances, orientation, and care. Teachers usually raise support to cover their salary and expenses. In some cases, there is a partial direct hire supplement from the school, and/or housing provided.

Teachers come in all ages, walks of life, and gender. SEND recruits new teachers right out of college, mid-life teachers who want a new challenge, and early retirees who bring their wealth of experience to the overseas school. Although schools prefer career teachers, all schools are open to short term teachers. Many schools also accept student teaching interns.

SHARE Education Services

SHARE is an inter-mission service led by SEND missionary, Dr. David Brooks.

Specialty English Teaching

SEND also recruits English Teachers who do not teach in missionary schools. Teaching English as a Second Language (TESL) is a primary evangelism tool in many ministry areas. English classes develop contacts that lead to Bible study and evangelism. An English teacher often partners with a church planting team and greatly enhances neighborhood evangelism by offering a much wanted skill - speaking English!
