About The Program

Teach. Live. Learn.

Be the one whose name your students will never forget on Masa Israel Teaching Fellows’ 10-month teaching fellowship in the central area of Bat-Yam.

Everyone remembers that teacher who made a difference. The teacher who cared, who was creative, who was dedicated to seeing you succeed. Now it is your chance to be the one whose name your students will never forget.

Masa Israel Teaching Fellows with Israel Experience provides exceptional Jewish college graduates the opportunity to join a 10 month English teaching service-learning program that addresses Israel’s educational achievement gap and the widespread underperformance of youth in the low-income communities of Bat-Yam, Rishon Le’Tzion, and Ramle. As an Israel Teaching Fellow, you will complete 100+ hours of teacher training, work in 3rd – 8th-grade classrooms for a minimum of 20 hours a week, receive 10 months of Hebrew language classes, volunteer within your new Israeli community, and explore the beauty, history, and culture of Israel through insightful seminars and tours.

The program is a joint project by the Israeli Ministry of Education and Masa Israel Journey. Both organizations believe in the values of the program and in the fellows’ distinct contribution to these Israeli communities. Therefore, both organizations offer generous funding to eligible participants – leaving the program cost at $1,000 for the entire 10-month experience, a price that even includes your ticket to Israel!

Come make an impact in a community where the education gap is widening.

About Bat Yam

Located on the Mediterranean Sea only 15 minutes south of Tel Aviv, Bat Yam is Israels 12th largest city, home to 160,000 residents (30% of whom are new immigrants from former soviet countries). Off the tourist track, Bat Yam has clean beaches, fresh fruit and vegetable markets, bars and restaurants, as well as sports centers, museums, cultural centers, and libraries. With multiple forms of public transportation operating to and from Yafo and Tel Aviv, Bat Yam is an oasis of peace and quiet outside of the hustle and bustle of the big city, yet still close enough to enjoy the cultural and social nightlife of its closest neighbor. With nearly 10 months of sunshine, Bat Yam is your perfect choice to call home.

Location

Safety and security

Whether you are a current or soon-to-be fellow or parent/guardian, we invite you to watch our Safety and Security video from Masa’s Chief Security Officer, Amir Keinan. This interactive video summarizes and addresses Masa’s main safety and security topics; you can choose the order in which you want to watch. Upon arrival, fellows will also receive a full safety and security briefing from their program organizer.
