Why Join Marici Cambodia?
Marici Cambodia is a registered NGO based in Phnom Penh working at the intersection of education, empowerment, and community development. Our Leadership Home programme provides a structured residential learning environment where young women aged 14–18 develop language skills, digital capabilities, and the personal confidence to step into leadership in their own lives.
We are building a team of dedicated educators who want more than a job — professionals who want to shape an innovative curriculum, see measurable growth in their students, and grow alongside the organisation. This role offers creative freedom, institutional support, and a career with genuine purpose.
Why Join Marici?
- A Global Laboratory for Change: Collaborate with international experts and contribute to cross-border knowledge sharing

We are now looking for qualified candidate to fulfill the position below:
- Curriculum Design & Lesson Planning
- Develop a full 12-month English Language curriculum for beginner-to-intermediate learners, with structured 3-, 6-, 9-, and 12-month learning milestones
- Write detailed weekly and monthly lesson plans covering listening, speaking, reading, and writing
- Integrate cross-cutting themes into the curriculum: personal identity, goal setting, communication, self-advocacy, and future planning
- Design differentiated lesson activities that accommodate varying literacy levels within the same class
- Create supplementary materials: vocabulary banks, reading passages, writing frames, speaking activity cards
- Review and update curriculum each term based on student progress data and programme feedback
- Classroom Teaching & Student Engagement

- Monitor individual student engagement, participation, and confidence week by week
- Adapt pacing and approach for students joining mid-cohort or returning after absence
- English Environment & Immersion
- Establish and sustain a whole-home English immersion culture: vocabulary displays, daily English greetings, conversation challenges, word-of-the-day routines
- Coordinate with other educators and residence staff to embed English micro-practice into daily schedules
- Encourage and support students in using English outside the classroom — in conversations, written notes, and digital communication
- Assessment & Progress Tracking
- Design and administer simple, non-threatening formative assessments at regular intervals
- Maintain an individual progress record for each student across all four language skills
- Produce a written progress summary for each student at the 3-, 6-, 9-, and 12-month milestones
- Use progress data to adapt teaching priorities and set meaningful next-step goals with each student
- International & Virtual Learning Support
