“The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
- Steve Jobs

Teach For Malaysia is an independent, not-for-profit organisation on a mission to empower our
nation through education. We believe that a child’s education and future should not be determined
by his or her circumstances in life. Thousands of students don’t have the chance to realise their
potential because of many socioeconomic factors, like how much their parents earn or where they
live.

We recruit, train and support our country’s rising generation of leaders to teach in high-need schools
across the nation, through the Teach For Malaysia Fellowship - a two-year leadership development
programme. We’ve impacted over 44,000 students, working with the Ministry of Education and other
partners. Beyond the Fellowship, our growing network of Alumni are lifelong advocates for education
and expanding opportunities for students, working as a movement to build an ecosystem of solutions
at all levels of society - from the classroom to the boardroom.

We are looking for champions to join our team in this movement of change, who share our vision,
mission, and core values; Sense of Possibility, Excellence, Collaboration, and Integrity. All these are an
important part of our culture, to ensure long-term, sustainable success, and realise our vision:
**One day, all children in Malaysia will have the opportunity to attain an excellent education.**

Our collaborative working environment opens up many opportunities for you to expand your network
and lead your own learning, alongside other team members, Fellows and Alumni, corporate partners,
the Ministry of Education, and other education stakeholders. Teach For Malaysia is also a partner in
the Global Education Network, Teach For All.

While our compensation package is fair and competitive, we do not expect this to be your key reason
for joining us. After all, we are not just offering you a job; we are looking for a like-minded future
leader to grow with us and help us in our mission to end education inequity in Malaysia.

**About Program Duta Guru**

Program Duta Guru is a two-year development programme to empower teachers to be highly
competent and committed; serving as role models to enhance higher order thinking skills (HOTS)
through STEM education as a foundation to being a competitive nation. The programme’s mission is
to build upon existing systems to improve the competency of Malaysian public school teachers in
order to enhance students’ higher order thinking skills.

Many STEM initiatives have been created within Malaysia, targeting different levels of the education
ecosystem. Despite these efforts, STEM enrollment in Malaysian public schools remains low due to a
lack of interest and competency. One key intervention, as outlined by the government, is to upskill
teachers who play a great influence on student choices and education outcomes. Program Duta Guru
aligns to this.

Teach for Malaysia has been appointed as the implementation partner of Program Duta Guru which
is a collaboration between Yayasan PETRONAS (“Yayasan”) and the Ministry of Education (“MOE”),
through their appointed MOE department representative.

Program Duta Guru supports teachers in every district in Malaysia through national and regional
training events, as well as individualised coaching and support. The programme launched in
December 2019, and the first cohort of 150 participants started their training in June 2020. Program
Duta Guru participants are grouped according to 6 zones, and each zone is managed by a
Programme Coordinator with a team of Pembimbing Duta Guru (teacher coaches).
