2020 Kenya Teacher's Ministry
About the Journey
Through our partnership with 410 Bridge, this global(x) team will head to Kenya, a geographically diverse country located on the equator in eastern Africa.
We’re looking to build a team of dynamic and passionate teachers and other education professionals who will share with and learn from the local Kenyan teachers and connect with the Kenyan children.
You’ll fly from Atlanta to Nairobi. Upon arrival, you’ll be met by an in-country 410 Bridge staff member. Because of the late hour, the team will head to a hotel just outside the city where you’ll stay overnight. In the morning, you’ll head to the Kenyan village, spend time in the community, and then check into a nearby hotel.
The team will serve in a local school where the American and Kenyan teachers, administrators, and staff will meet and share best practices, discuss ideas about learning styles and approaches, and talk about cultural differences. You’ll attend a local church service, participate in prayer walks, and visit with families in their homes. Most teams will also have the opportunity to help with a community project and maybe even head out on an African safari!
Connecting with others in your profession and sharing conversations about improving education, especially in a third world country, can be a fulfilling and meaningful experience. If you’re interested in heading to Kenya this summer, apply today!
A visa is REQUIRED for entry to Kenya, and is the responsibility of the team member. See "Prerequisites" and "Forms" below.
