Cursory: Eight Nigerian teachers will participate in the 2023 Fulbright Foreign Language Teaching Assistant Program (FLTA) in the US. They will teach Yoruba language and culture at American universities and colleges, promoting cultural ties between Nigeria and the US. See full details below;
A group of eight Nigerian teachers has been granted sponsorship to travel to the United States, where they will engage in a remarkable educational endeavor.
Their mission is to teach Yoruba language and culture at various universities and colleges for one full academic session. This extraordinary opportunity is made possible through the renowned 2023 Fulbright Foreign Language Teaching Assistant Program (FLTA).
The US Missions in Nigeria took to their Instagram account to announce this significant development last Saturday.
According to the message, the beneficiaries are expected to polish their teaching skills and share their experience in the American society to solidify the relationships between the two countries.
“Join us in wishing the 2023 Fulbright Foreign Language Teaching Assistant Program (FLTA) scholars a rewarding teaching assignment!,” the US Consulate said.
“Eight Nigerian teachers are departing for the United States to teach Yoruba language and culture to American students in U.S. universities and colleges for one academic session.
“During the program, participants will refine their teaching skills and extend their knowledge of the society and culture of the United States while strengthening the ties between Nigeria and the United States.”
The Fulbright FLTA Program is a non-degree, ECA-funded initiative that spans nine months and is designed for early career English teachers or professionals in related fields.
Its primary objective is to facilitate teaching opportunities for participants to instruct their native language in an American college or university.
Eligible candidates must have less than seven years of teaching experience to be considered for this program.
