Teach For Malaysia is an independent, not-for-pro\xef\xac\x81t organisation on a mission to empower our
nation through education. We believe that a child\'s education and future should not be determined
by his or her circumstances in life. Thousands of students don\'t have the chance to realise their
potential because of many socioeconomic factors, like how much their parents earn or where they
live.
We recruit, train and support our country\'s rising generation of leaders to teach in high-need schools
across the nation, through the Teach For Malaysia Fel owship - a two-year leadership development
programme. We\'ve impacted over 150,000 students and worked with the Ministry of Education and
other corporate and social sector partners to col ectively bring transformation to the education
system. Beyond the Fel owship, our growing network of Alumni are lifelong advocates for education
and expanding opportunities for students, working as a movement to build an ecosystem of solutions
at al levels of society - from the classroom to the boardroom.
We are looking for champions to join our team in this movement of change, who share our vision,
mission, and core values; Sense of Possibility, Excel ence, Col aboration, and Integrity. Al these are an
important part of our culture, to ensure long-term, sustainable success, and realise our vision:
One day, all children in Malaysia will have the opportunity to realise their potential through
quality education.
Our col aborative working environment opens up many opportunities for you to expand your network
and lead your own learning, alongside other team members, Fel ows and Alumni, corporate partners,
the Ministry of Education, and other education stakeholders. Teach For Malaysia is also a partner in
the Global Education Network, Teach For Al .
While our compensation package is fair and competitive, we do not expect this to be your key reason
for joining us. After al , we are not just offering you a job; we are looking for a like-minded future
leader to grow with us and help us in our mission to end education inequity in Malaysia.
