American Samoa, or AmSam for short, is an unincorporated U.S. territory, just like Puerto Rico. Home to volcanic mountains and rain forests, as well as deep water harbors, the natural beauty of AmSam is undeniable. Teachers will get a taste of Samoan culture and celebrations, including the kava ceremony, the drinking of a plant-based drink at special events. Even though English is the official language of AmSam, Samoan is widely used and most locals prefer to speak it. Even so, there is demand on the islands for teachers of all subjects. Explore the natural sites as you help teach and inspire a new generation of American Samoan students and thinkers!
