English Teacher for Asian Missionary Candidates(METC)

Description

IMM is running METC for recruiting missionary candidates for the cross-cultural missions since 2014. METC stands for “Missionary English Training Course”. METC is designed to train cross-cultural Christian workers in English focusing on the Bible, missions and English for their daily growth and strength for ministry.METC trainees are missionary candidates who are preparing for the cross-cultural mission. They are, mainly, from Asian countries.METC is a place where missionary trainees live and study together in a residential community setting. The language spoken here is English. Native English speakers from Australia, Canada, the USA, and the U.K. assist the trainees in the further development of their English language skills. We seek to make METC is an international community where the trainees can become comfortable with foreigners and in their use of English.As an METC teacher, your day begins at 8.30am with a staff meeting, followed by 4 hours of classes, with additional time spent grading assignments and mentoring students. Each day officially ends at 5:00 pm, when dinner is served. There are no classes on Saturdays and Sundays. Because our focus is on equipping potential missionaries for the field and not merely on teaching English, the course curriculum will include lessons on preaching, sharing of personal testimonies, and prayer. All staff will need to prepare to share their personal testimonies, and at least one sermon. The course curriculum will also include one-on-one mentoring, in which teachers will be matched to students.

Requirements

Prospective teachers should have the following: •a confidence of salvation through Jesus Christ •Experience with local church membership and ministry involvement •a passion for the mission. •a servant heart •a basic sound Bible knowledge •good health •a good sense of humor •a fluent native speaker of English with good teaching skills •a flexible, cooperative spirit to work with and for others •a team spirit •TESOL certificates are not very essential for this ministry. Instead, we greatly respect and prioritize the experience of those who have taught English.

How is WEC different from other missionary organizations?

Each missionary organization has its own identity, and none is necessarily better than another. What truly matters is finding a mission that aligns with your calling, your values, and the purpose God has placed in your heart.

At WEC, our focus is to bring the gospel to places where it has not yet been proclaimed. Everything we do, whether through short-term or long-term ministries, is aimed at seeing Christ-centered communities emerge among unreached peoples.

No matter how long you serve or what gifts, skills, and experiences you bring, your involvement will be part of a greater vision: to see disciples of Jesus raised up in places where the gospel is still unknown. That might mean going to remote regions, facing cultural challenges, or walking alongside local churches in difficult contexts.

Through partnerships with African churches, we seek to reach these hearts with the hope of Christ.

Is God calling you to be part of this mission?

What opportunities are there?

Currently, we have around 500 open opportunities to serve among unreached peoples. You can learn more by visiting our website.

Can I choose where I go?

Where you will serve and what your ministry will be are often two of the biggest questions people consider. We will work with you and your church to discern the direction the Lord is leading. At the same time, you need to carefully consider WEC as an organization and whether you and your church would be happy to partner with us.
