At International Alliance Group (IAG), we’re proud to connect passionate educators from around the world with rewarding opportunities in the United States.
Today, we’re thrilled to share the experience of Lester Duarte, an Honduran international teacher who is making a significant impact as a High School ESL teacher in San Antonio, Texas.
Now, in his third year, Lester’s decision to teach in the US was driven by a powerful combination of professional ambition and a desire to connect cultures.
He sought to gain invaluable professional experience, make a positive difference in the lives of his students and colleagues, and share the richness of his Honduran culture through his teaching.

“I really want to emphasize the unwavering support I’ve received throughout my entire journey, which truly shows IAG’s commitment to its teachers.They have always supported me throughout my journey. I can only say thank you.”
