AIM Educator (3–6 Months)

Heroes need not apply. We’re looking for regular people who care about kids and learning.

Vision:
In parts of Malaysia there are children who don’t “fit” neatly into the system—stateless kids, underserved communities, missionary kids, and young people who need extra help. You don’t have to be a professional educator to make a difference. If you can show up, be patient, and help kids learn, you can help create open doors for the gospel and long-term change.

Quick Facts:

• Location: Malaysia (urban & community settings)
• Timeframe: 3–6 months (Can be shortened to a summer internship)
• Focus: Education & tutoring for underserved kids and MKs
• Ideal Background: Anyone who likes kids and is willing to help them learn (teaching experience is helpful but not required)

What You’ll Do:

• Help in a school setting for stateless children, supporting classroom teachers with basic lessons and activities
• Assist in launching free tutoring for underserved communities—helping kids with homework, English, and basic skills
• Explore launching an NGO focused on education and community development (research, brainstorming, helping draft simple plans)
• Support parents by helping with MK schooling (homework help, basic classes, reading time)
• Help teach in an English language center, using simple materials and conversation practice
• Work with the team to develop and run at least one free 1-week tutoring program for the community

Impact:
Your service will help children who often fall through the cracks. Extra support in reading, English, and basic education builds trust with families, supports local churches, and opens the door for Bible studies and long-term discipleship. You’ll also help lay the groundwork for future tutoring programs or even a local NGO focused on education.

Is This a Good Fit for You?

• You enjoy kids and don’t need everything to be “perfect” to serve
• You’re patient, kind, and willing to repeat yourself a few times
• You’re open to learning some local culture and maybe a few local phrases
• You’re willing to help practically—cutting paper, setting up classrooms, cleaning up after activities
• You love Jesus and want to make His love visible in simple, everyday ways
