We believe that education is an effective catalyst bringing hope to individuals and positive transformation to communities. We follow Jesus Christ by engaging with the needs of this world – physical, relational, and spiritual. Our teachers use their skills and contexts to bring Christ’s light and healing to all – children, adults, leaders, and mission workers alike. WE GO. TeachBeyond recruits and sends Christian educators, administrators, and workers to serve in many different schools and organizations across the globe. WE EQUIP. TeachBeyond equips educators, schools, and organizations to serve our Lord in pursuit of our common vision for transformational education. TeachBeyond has dozens of consultants and coaches who work with like-minded schools and organizations to provide continuing education to teachers, administrators, boards, and school owners. WE PARTNER. TeachBeyond rarely works alone. We partner with groups, organizations, and institutions in pursuit of our mission. In partnership with local organizations, TeachBeyond co-owns and supports a number of K-12 schools, English language learning programs, and projects.
