For nearly four decades, Participate Learning has partnered with schools across the United States to prepare students for success in a rapidly changing world. Through our cultural exchange and dual language programs, we bring experienced international educators into U.S. classrooms, enriching learning with diverse perspectives. As part of our J-1 visa program, you’ll inspire young learners while gaining professional experience abroad, then return home equipped to share new skills, ideas, and cultural understanding that strengthen global connections.
Teaching with Participate Learning is more than an opportunity—it’s a life-changing experience that allows you to make a real difference in students’ lives while advancing your own career.
As an international educator, you’ll bring authentic global perspectives into U.S. classrooms, inspiring curiosity and helping young learners develop the skills they need to thrive in an interconnected world. Your presence empowers students to think beyond borders, embrace diversity, and prepare for success in a global workforce.
At the same time, you’ll gain valuable professional experience, immerse yourself in American culture, and grow personally and professionally in ways that will benefit you long after your exchange program ends. This is more than just teaching—it’s a cultural journey that broadens your horizons while shaping the future of students in the U.S. and around the world."
