You will spend 4 days each week assisting an English teacher in a local elementary or middle school. Your work is crucial in helping to provide equal educational opportunities while providing underachieving students with important role models. In addition, Fellows will volunteer or intern each week with a local non-profit organization in order to further develop their skills and interests, make an impact, and experience a different side of the city.

You’ll live in apartments centrally located in Jerusalem. With extensive public transportation, the city will be at your fingertips. All apartments are fully furnished, have wifi, and basic kitchen appliances. You’ll get to experience day-to-day life in your community, alongside your neighbors, and will have unique opportunities to take part in the thriving culture around you.
