Job Description

ESL Biology Teacher at School in Rural Tanzania

Red Sweater Project collaborates with developing communities in the creation of affordable, accessible and

innovative educational opportunities for children in rural Tanzania. The organization operates the Mungere School

ESL BIOLOGY TEACHER

environment.

Mungere students live in a remote community, where English is rarely spoken and primary school is taught in the

Biology classes and extra-curricular activities designed to broaden skills.
