Description

Fulbright's English Teaching Assistantships offer opportunities for students to work up to 20 hours per week in an English language classroom, under the supervision of a classroom teacher. Like all Fulbrights, the ETA is about fostering mutual understanding between the US and the host nations. Students apply to an individual country's ETA program, but do not get to choose where in the country they are placed. ETA's generally have a project that they do alongside their classroom responsibilities, though teaching and understanding should be the students' main purpose.

Students interested in the Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship (ETA) should contact Cindy Schaarschmidt (215.571.3818, cs837@drexel.edu).
