High School Math Teacher in Liberia

Job description

We are looking for U.S. citizens who want to be a part of something bigger and are willing to go the distance to make a difference. Is that you?

In more than 60 countries, Peace Corps Volunteers are putting their purpose, passion, and skills to work in partnership with welcoming host communities – growing, teaching, learning, and making change together.

As a Peace Corps Volunteer, you'll live and work alongside community members on locally prioritized projects, receiving a stipend and other support as you immerse yourself in a new culture. You’ll build relationships, exchange knowledge, and help transform lives for generations.

About the project

Liberia is looking for math teachers to strengthen instruction and learning outcomes for grades 9-12

Mathematics achievement remains a significant challenge nationwide. Many students struggle with foundational numeracy, algebra readiness, and problem-solving due to limited instructional materials, overcrowded classrooms, and a lack of trained math teachers. National assessments consistently reveal gaps in math proficiency, especially in rural areas. As Liberia’s government prioritizes improved workforce readiness, economic growth, and educational equity, strengthening the country’s math education has become essential.

As a High School Math Teacher, you will collaborate with school staff to strengthen instructional techniques, build students’ confidence, and develop sustainable resources. Over time, your efforts will contribute to stronger student performance, raise pass rates, and expand access to quality math education.
