Intalage imagines a future where students freely interact with teachers from around the world, either through technology or in person. We’re working to grow a network where America’s children have continual access to new ideas, new techniques, and new opportunities for learning. We’d like every child in the country to learn from an international teacher in some way, so they can engage with a world beyond their own. We believe this wider perspective will spark empathy, innovation, and commitment to knowledge. Students who develop these foundational skills will contribute to our country’s excellence and help pave the way for a brighter, kinder world.
We connect international teachers to U.S. schools to help realize this vision.
Intalage works to create alliances among teachers, students, schools, and communities. We embrace change and help students adapt to all the ways that our world is growing.
Our approach to helping students thrive:
Create Alliances
We believe in connection. At the core of our work is the dynamic link between U.S. schools and a global network of teachers. We work together with school districts and help strengthen communities through the practice of connecting education professionals with opportunities to practice excellence in education.
Develop Learners
Facts and figures are only a start—our international educators help expand students’ ability to see things from different perspectives and develop diverse learning styles. We also ensure that our educators and the school districts we work with can access professional development, so that everyone involved can be lifetime learners.
Empower Communities
Teachers are catalysts of community. Through sharing their diverse backgrounds and life experiences from beyond the classroom, Intalage teachers empower students to be their best and effect positive change in their communities. In addition, the diversity of our staff helps create healthy spaces where more students can relate to their teachers—whether through cultural traditions, perspectives on life, or a shared love of a sport.
