International School Teacher
Senegal
Africa

Teach. Disciple. Make an Impact in West Africa.
What if your classroom could help advance the Gospel?
On the West Coast of Africa, an international Christian school is helping global workers stay on the field by providing quality education for their children. At the same time, the school serves local and international families from a wide range of cultural and religious backgrounds, creating unique opportunities for discipleship, relationship-building, and Gospel witness.
We're looking for passionate teachers who want more than a career. We're looking for people who want to invest in the next generation while serving in a region where many have never heard the message of Jesus.
As part of this opportunity, you'll join a diverse community of educators and ministry workers serving among unreached people groups throughout West Africa. From the classroom to conversations with students and families, every day brings opportunities to build relationships that matter.
What You'll Do:
- Teach at an ACSI-accredited international Christian school
- Serve students from Pre-K through 12th grade
- Support missionary families, local families, and international families
- Invest in students academically, spiritually, and relationally
- Build connections with people from many cultures and backgrounds
- Be part of a larger team working to reach unreached people groups across West Africa
Who We're Looking For:
People who are passionate about teaching and willing to serve cross-culturally.
Elementary Teachers
Secondary Subject Teachers
Special Education Teachers
Education Professionals
Recent Graduates Exploring Missions and Education
Why This Matters:
One of the biggest challenges for global workers is access to quality education for their children. By serving in the classroom, you'll help families remain on the field while also creating opportunities for Gospel influence among students and families from around the world.
This isn't simply a teaching position.
It's an opportunity to help strengthen ministry across West Africa, invest in future leaders, and live out your faith in a place where the Gospel is still needed.
If you're ready to use your skills, grow through cross-cultural ministry, and make an eternal impact, this could be your next step.

Ready to use your skills where they can make a lasting impact?
Join an innovative school startup in Goma, Democratic Republic of the Congo, where education is more than academics. It's an opportunity to help shape the next generation of leaders, creators, and changemakers.

We're looking for someone who is:
- Self-motivated
- Adaptable
- Relationally driven
- Passionate about education
- Creative and collaborative

Through a series of events, God redirected our steps to Uganda in 2015 and Mesa Global was there walking beside us all the way. This is now our ninth year here in Uganda and we simply couldn't do it without the support of a strong sending organization. God's grace and Mesa Global have helped us build endurance and perseverance to face the rigors of serving cross-culturally.

God used many people to help me through hard times; now I find myself a friend to many Afghan refugee women who have suffered enormous losses. I want to share with them our Heavenly Father's incredible compassion and comfort and the hope of eternal life!

I've had the incredible privilege to serve refugees in Phoenix from multiple countries and it has been incredible to build friendships with so many families. I had the opportunity to visit the family of a close refugee friend while in Malaysia. It really grew my perspective of how much God can use friendships to create bridges and connections all around the world. It also taught me that the work God is doing among refugees in Phoenix not only impacts families in Phoenix, but it can impact families globally.

Mesa Global provided invaluable support and wisdom during our ministry transitions, allowing us to join God strategically where He is at work. Their emphasis on partnership, both with local ministries and other organizations, has expanded our impact and exemplified God's people working together for His purposes.

Mesa Global's prioritization of holistic care has been a significant part of my personal and professional growth with Mesa Interns - Avance España. It’s one thing to read Emotionally Healthy Spirituality; it’s another to see your mentors and colleagues embody these holistic practices in their own lives; and yet another to receive their accompaniment as you develop these practices yourself and with locals.

I moved to Asia at the age of 47 and started studying one of the world's most difficult languages. The investments people made to send me to that big country are now rippling throughout multiple generations, families, and businesses because of the time invested in building relationships centered on Christ and his Kingdom.

Joining Mesa Global has been a great experience. They respond within hours of sending an email! They are flexible when it comes to unique individual requirements! Mesa Global also wants to make sure that their missionaries are well equipped before going to the field and provide a training for a month and a half in North Carolina. After completing the training and funding process, Mesa Global is quick to send their missionaries to the field, well prepared for what's ahead!

Throughout our 40 years of service in Senegal, 35 of them with Mesa Global, France-Lise and I have been richly blessed by the spirit of collaboration that has characterized our mission since its inception. This has enabled us, among other things, to contribute to the establishment of a holistic church-planting organization in Muslim environments in Senegal. This national organization worked with local churches of different Christian denominations, in partnership with other churches and international organizations, to reach unreached areas of Senegal.

Over the years, I've been allowed to live and serve in drastically different contexts and countries, deeply experience the richness of different views and cultures, and see the gospel at work. In each place, God has graciously provided Mesa Global leadership that has guided, mentored, and helped me thrive in an environment where I can not only discover my own gifts but bring them to the table and see them used to glorify God's name.
