The Teach for Nepal is inviting applications for its fellowship program to offer a unique opportunity for you to grow as a leader while having a significant and immediate impact on education inequity in Nepal.
The Teach for Nepal Fellowship is a highly competitive, challenging, and rewarding leadership development program. It is an opportunity to make a real difference in one of the most important social issues of the time; education inequity in Nepal, while equipping you with valuable skills that will enable you to launch a career in any field. Over the two years, you will hone your skills in a variety of areas including communication, planning, project management and implementation, and teamwork. As a classroom instructor, you are uniquely poised to set your students on new paths and to lead them to success both in and out of school. And as a member of the movement, you join a network of leaders and change agents both locally and internationally. You will leave Teach for Nepal prepared and confident to meet whatever comes next.
Benefits
- Teach for Nepal Fellowship is not a voluntary leadership program, rather this is an opportunity with a paid stipend. Fellows receive a monthly stipend. In most communities, they receive accommodation support as well.
- They are looking for people who may never before have considered teaching as part of their career path. To ensure success in the classroom, the program is developing an intensive six-week residential training that will cover lesson planning, classroom management, community relations, and much more. In addition to six weeks of pre-service training, their Fellows will receive ongoing support and regular training during the two years of Fellowship.
Funding Information
- Teach for Nepal Fellows will be paid on a monthly stipend basis during the entire two years of Fellowship. The fellows have been paid a stipend of Rs. 22,500 per month during the two years of Fellowship.
Eligibility Criteria
- If you are a Nepali citizen, or NRN and have completed a Bachelor’s degree, you are eligible to apply for the Fellowship. They are looking especially for people who have demonstrated leadership potential, interest in social change, and growth mindset with content mastery in science, math, computer and English.
- Fellow is the term they have chosen to call the college graduates who will be trained and working as teachers. They are members of the Corps, or group of leaders working to address educational injustice.
