Israel Teaching Fellows: Rishon Le’tzion

Teach. Live. Experience.

ITF will bring about change in Israeli schools through a new and innovative 10 month program, highly subsidized by the Ministry of Education and the Masa project, where fellows will partner with Israeli teachers to work in English classes in Israel.

Come join us for the amazing opportunity to be a change agent in Israel. The teaching fellows will complete a 100+ hour teacher training that will complement past teaching experiences, work in 3rd- 8th grade classrooms, receive Hebrew language learning through the year, participate in a community and professional development project weekly, and explore Israel through seminars and tours. This comprehensive program will provide you with a supportive environment to give you the tools to succeed and make a difference the lives of Israeli children in Rishon Le’tzion.
