Uganda - Level 3: Reconsider Travel
Updated to reflect information on public demonstrations. Read the entire Travel Advisory.

Teaching abroad in Uganda offers an incredible opportunity to experience the heart of East Africa while making a meaningful impact in education. Known as the "Pearl of Africa," Uganda boasts stunning landscapes, including the source of the Nile, lush national parks, and the majestic Rwenzori Mountains. English is one of Uganda's official languages, making it a key subject in schools and an essential skill for students aspiring to succeed in a globalized world. As a TESOL teacher, you'll engage with eager learners, immerse yourself in vibrant cultures, and discover the warm hospitality of Ugandans. From bustling cities like Kampala to rural communities, teaching in Uganda provides a rewarding experience that combines adventure with the chance to make a lasting difference. Uganda, nestled in East Africa, is characterized by a varied landscape dominated by a vast plateau with an average elevation of 1,100 meters. This plateau is punctuated by numerous lakes, most notably Lake Victoria, the largest in Africa and a source of the Nile River. The country's western border is marked by the Rwenzori Mountains, often snow-capped, while volcanic formations like Mount Elgon rise in the east. The Albertine Rift Valley, a section of the Great Rift Valley, slices through western Uganda, creating dramatic escarpments and diverse habitats. While much of the country is lush and fertile, the northeastern region borders the semi-arid plains of Karamoja. This varied topography, combined with abundant water sources, contributes to Uganda's rich biodiversity and agricultural potential.
