ABOUT US 
 

Our Mission: Talent. Trust. Transformation.

 

 

Ethical Referrals. Expert Preparation. Global Impact.

​

We connect U.S. schools and authorized J-1 visa sponsors with highly qualified international educators—while equipping those teachers for long-term success through ethical referrals, readiness training, and transition support.

 

We Believe:

​

• Every student deserves a confident, culturally aware, and instructionally prepared teacher.

• Every teacher deserves coaching, preparation, and a support system that empowers their journey.

• Every school deserves a reliable partner that understands the demands of staffing and the value of cultural exchange.

 

​Who We Are

 

TeachCare Staffing is a U.S.-based teacher referral and training consultancy headquartered in Virginia.

 

We were founded by an educator with:

​

• Nearly 20 years of K–12 experience in Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia

• A Master’s degree in Education and certification in instructional leadership

• A strong foundation in Philippine education, with prior experience as a school administrator

• Deep cross-cultural relationships with international teachers, universities, and school systems

• A strict, compliance-first operational model that upholds Department of State guidelines

​

​

What We Do

​​​

• We are your teacher readiness and referral partner.

• We are not a recruitment agency.

• We are not a visa sponsor.

​

We serve two key audiences:

 

For International Educators:

• Training in U.S. classroom management, interview skills, and demo lesson delivery

• Cultural orientation and onboarding preparation

• Referral to authorized J-1 visa sponsors—always free of placement fees

​

For Visa Sponsors & Schools:

• Referral of pre-vetted, visa-eligible educators for high-need subject areas

• Reduced sourcing burdens through credential screening and interview readiness

• Support during and after placement through optional coaching and mentorship

​

​

Our Process: Five Steps to Sustainable Success

 

Step 1: Understand the Needs
We assess the school's or sponsor's subject-area requirements, certification criteria, and hiring timeline.

 

Step 2: Refer Prepared Candidates
Every teacher is vetted for licensure alignment, demo-readiness, and cultural adaptability.

 

Step 3: Support the Interview Process
We provide interview coordination, real-time feedback, and candidate coaching to ensure strong fit.

 

Step 4: Empower the Transition
Our teachers receive pre-departure classroom preparation, cultural guidance, and onboarding support.

 

Step 5: Strengthen Retention
Post-placement check-ins and mentorship options ensure teachers feel supported throughout their assignment.

Why TeachCare? What Makes Us Different

​

• Compliance First: We strictly refer—we do not recruit, place, or sponsor. This protects teachers, schools, and the integrity of the J-1 program.

• Preparedness at the Core: Our teachers are not just eligible—they’re equipped to lead with excellence.

• Cultural Competency: We understand both sides—U.S. school culture and the international teacher experience.

• Bridge Builder: We speak the language of instruction, cultural humility, and program compliance—so schools and sponsors don’t have to worry.

​

​

Our Vision

​

We envision every U.S. classroom led by a globally competent, deeply prepared, and ethically placed educator.
And we believe every international teacher should be guided—not left to navigate alone.

 

That’s the TeachCare difference.
