With over 2,000 distinct ethnic groups and languages, Africa is a continent of incredible cultural diversity. As an international teacher in Africa, you’ll have the opportunity to immerse yourself in these unique cultures, experiencing traditions, customs, and art forms that have been passed down through generations. From the vibrant festivals of Ghana to the Maasai community in Kenya, Africa is a treasure trove of cultural exploration that will expand your horizons and deepen your appreciation for the world’s rich tapestry.
One of the most remarkable aspects of teaching in Africa is the warmth and hospitality of the local communities. You’ll be welcomed into the community with open arms, forging lifelong connections and experiencing a sense of belonging that is truly special. The support and camaraderie of fellow educators, both local and international, will create a strong network that helps you thrive both personally and professionally.
Teaching internationally in Africa provides a myriad of advantages that go beyond the classroom. You’ll engage with students from diverse backgrounds, gain valuable cross-cultural skills, and contribute to the educational development of an entire nation. As an international teacher, you can make a profound difference by empowering young minds and inspiring a lifelong love for learning.
While Africa may be perceived as lacking in infrastructure, many countries have made significant strides in recent years. Capital cities and major urban centers boast modern amenities, including reliable internet access, well-equipped schools, and comfortable living accommodations.
Countries such as South Africa, Ghana, Kenya, and Rwanda have made remarkable progress in building a solid educational infrastructure that supports teachers and students alike.

I have been a school-level user of Schrole for recruiting for the last three hiring cycles and have found the platform they provide to be intuitive and comprehensive. The user interface stands out from others in the market as a crisp interface with the right level of features included at the right places. For me, the top two features are the ability to create school-specific application questions for applicants, and the availability of a short and long form applicant documentation PDF. If you’re looking for a recruiting platform, I highly recommend considering Schrole.
