We are seeking volunteer English and Spanish language teachers with a passion for education, people, and travel for our global voyage departing from Japan in April 2025. Peace Boat is an international NGO building a culture of peace by connecting people across borders and creating opportunities for learning, activism and cooperation. Our teachers facilitate this by empowering our participants with the skills and confidence to use language to make these connections. While this is an unpaid position, Peace Boat covers the cost of visas, port fees, room and board.
Visiting 28 Ports Around the World, including Alaska and the Nordic Countries. This voyage will offer the opportunity to experience very different and equally striking scenery around the world, including travel through two types of fjords β the verdant valleys with lush vegetation in Norway and the snow-covered fjords of Alaska with glaciers glistening under sunlight. The packed itinerary also includes beautiful cities, famous World Heritage sites, and relaxing locations in Europe, Central America, and beyond.

Due to the high number of applications the schools receive they may not be able to respond to every application. If you don't hear back from them within a week or so, it's best to move on to the next job.
When applying for jobs, you should NEVER have to pay to apply. You should also NEVER have to pay to buy anything which they then pay you back for later. NEVER PAY FOR ANYTHING! Also always verify you're actually talking to the company in the job post and not an imposter. Scams in TEFL are rampant, be careful!
