Teach in Senegal | Montessori jobs in Africa | Teaching jobs abroad
I am looking for Montessori practicioners with a strong knowledge and a certificate in the Montessori pedagogy to join them in August 2017 for a two years contract renewable on mutual agreement.
Senegal is a welcoming country with one of the most fascinating historical heritage of Africa. Dakar, the capital has plenty of activities and monuments to visit!
Dakar caters to such a wide range of economic classes both from a tourism and a living perspective, you will for sure fall in love with the country:
The Plateau: The downtown area of Dakar is know as the plateau. You can create a bit of a walking tour for yourself downtown and check out the Presidential Palace, the Chamber of Commerce, Hotel de Ville, the Market and the train station.
Museums: I got shut out on my museum search in Dakar as one museum the Musee Theodore Monod was under construction while I was there and the Galerie Nationale was closed for some holiday. I did, however, get into the Institut Francais Leopold Sedar Senghor which was quite nice.
Les Almadies: This part of town is for the wealthy and embassy types. There are some nice beaches, some of which are private, a couple expensive hotels and some great places to get grub. If you’re staying downtown, it makes for a nice escape from the chaos of downtown
N’Gor: This is an island just off of the peninsula which is famous for it’s surfing. If you’re into surf, you might want to book yourself in here for a couple days.
Ile de Goree: Easily my favourite place in the area, it’s possible to do a day trip (and most people do just a day trip) to Ile de Goree, however I recommend spending a couple days out here if you can.
This Montessori School is located in a safe, vibrant and enjoyable area of Dakar called " The Almadies" where you could easily find some coffeshops, bars, American food store,restaurants and the beach at only 15minutes walk.
I must let you know that costs of living in Dakar are extremely cheap, with an average monthly cost of living of around 300,000 FCFA per month.
