Experienced Mathematics / Physics / Computer Science Teacher
Technology Leaders of the Future (TLF) — an international selective scholarship program for talented students aged 14 and older — is seeking experienced STEM teachers for its campuses in Venice, Italy and Limassol, Cyprus.
TLF combines the IB curriculum with an advanced STEM track and teaches selectively admitted students who pass a multi-stage examination process.
https://leaders.tech/1. About TLF
Launched in September 2025, TLF is an international educational initiative designed to support talented and motivated teenagers through a rigorous academic program. The first cohort includes around 60 students (~30 in Italy and ~30 in Cyprus).
TLF prepares future technological leaders by providing access to a high-level international education: students follow the IB curriculum, earn an official IB Diploma, and at the same time study within an enhanced STEM track inspired by the traditions of leading phys-math schools on the territory of former USSR.
Students pass a multi-stage competitive selection process, including examinations and interviews with ~2% admission rate (first year cohort).
Program Philosophy
- Fully philanthropic: free for families; admission depends solely on ability and entry exam results.
