How does Beibei Amigos recruit native Mandarin and Spanish speaking teachers despite a national shortage? Beibei Amigos solves the bilingual teacher shortage by focusing on a mission-driven culture, competitive compensation, and community building, successfully recruiting and retaining 14+ native Mandarin and Spanish speaking teachers across our two schools in the Phoenix area.
The national bilingual teacher shortage has left many programs struggling. Yet, at Beibei Amigos, we’ve built a robust roster of educators dedicated to our bilingual (Mandarin and Spanish) immersion philosophy.
Building a Mission-Driven Environment
At the core of our strategy is our clear mission. We provide authentic, full immersion environments that empower educators to teach in their native languages. When teachers see that their culture and language are celebrated rather than just accommodated, they are more likely to commit long-term.
Competitive Retention Strategies
We understand that retaining talent requires more than passion. Beibei Amigos has implemented support systems that help our teachers thrive both inside and outside the classroom.
