IFSA loves educators! We believe an experience abroad with IFSA can help equip you with a global perspective for the benefit of your future classrooms and all the students’ lives you will touch throughout your career. You may want to add an international teaching practicum to your resume or simply fulfill specific degree requirements while abroad. Aligning your term abroad with the right classes is perhaps most important for education majors, who tend to have strict degree plans. IFSA’s CHART database will offer you classes other education majors have recently taken, or let IFSA staff identify new classes to add to the data which are potential matches to your institution’s unique curriculum.
