Work at a city university, teaching oral English to 1st and 2nd year students.

Teaching just 16 hours of classes per week will bring you great opportunities to make friends with students among an unreached people group, and accept invitations to their homes, because your students will want lots of practice with you.

You will enjoy serving as part of a local team, following careful guidelines to reach effectively young adults who would otherwise have little opportunity to hear the gospel.

You have had at least two years of teaching experience.

You could start in either March or September, but the application process is long.

About Teaching English

Fluency in English provides students with a vital skill. By teaching English as a foreign language you can take opportunities to build relationships with students, which may open doors to share the gospel.

Use your TEFL or TESOL training on a short-term mission experience with WEC. Have an opportunity to travel and experience a new culture. Every year there are opportunities in Brazil and Korea to teach our trainee missionaries. 

Here are some stories from Brazil:

About East Asia

The whole of Asia has developed rapidly over the last two decades, with huge political and economic development, along with rapid church growth.

All kinds of opportunities are opening up as ASEAN develops and Asia continues to change. God is clearly at work and WEC seeks to be in step with him, seeing the nations of East Asia reflecting God’s glory, his kingdom impacting each nation, and disciples of Jesus making more disciples.

WEC’s diverse ministry in East Asia includes missional business, education, English teaching, medical care and development work.

We cannot give details online about the countries, situations and opportunities we have found where you can serve in East Asia, but we will be able to tell you more when you meet us face to face.
