2015-2016 Teaching Assistant Program in France

A French Embassy program offering young Americans the opportunity to live and work in France.

This program, sponsored by the French Ministry of Education and the Cultural Services of the French Embassy, offers young Americans the opportunity to live and work in France for 7 months with a salary, teaching English to French students of all ages.

The program provides American Francophiles with teaching experience and first-hand knowledge of French language and culture, while also strengthening English-language instruction in French schools.

Over 1,100 positions are available each year for U.S. citizens and permanent residents in metropolitan France as well as in the overseas departments of French Guiana, Guadeloupe, Martinique and La Réunion.

More information about the program can be found here on the French Embassy Website (with a useful FAQs page).

The application for the 2015-2016 program will be available in October 2014. Check at http://www.tapif.org.
