Teaching in Asia Program

Read Before You Apply!

Every year, CSB/SJU graduates head to Asia to teach English as a Second Language. Some students go through CSB/SJU partner institutions in China and Japan, while others strike out on their own to find different opportunities.

Program Overview

Each year 20 or more CSB/SJU students and graduates receive teaching and volunteering assignments in Asia. These young men and women teach English as a Second Language, assist school officials, and serve as goodwill ambassadors. While enriching the lives of others, they enrich their own by developing new friendships, gaining teaching experience, developing language skills and making career connections. There are no language requirements for these positions, nor is any teaching certification or experience required.

If you are interested in exploring these exciting opportunities, this website will get you started. The positions identified are those which CSB/SJU graduates presently hold and are through institutions with which CSB/SJU has historically had positive relations. CSB/SJU faculty and staff will help interested students identify appropriate teaching opportunities and will write letters of recommendation, if requested. The various institutions will then conduct the hiring of teachers for their individual programs.
