| Title | Funding Opportunity: Foreign Language Teaching Assistant Program |
| Body | From http://www.iie.org/Template.cfm?Section=Home&Template=/Activity/ActivityDisplay.cfm&activityid=70 Since 1968, the FLTA Program has aimed to strengthen foreign language instruction at U.S. educational institutions by establishing a native speaker presence. The FLTA Program provides an opportunity for young, international teachers of English to refine their teaching skills, increase their English language proficiency and extend their knowledge of the cultures and customs of the United States while engaging in non-degree studies. FLTAs add an energetic and up-to-date cultural component to foreign language classes as well as to student life on U.S. campuses. This interaction makes studying and learning languages much more meaningful and real. Working with the U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs, IIE has expanded the FLTA Program to include teaching assistants in Arabic, Bengali, Bahasa Indonesian, Chinese, Hausa, Hindi, Malaysian, Mongolian, Pashtu, Persian, Russian, Swahili, Tagalog, Tajik, Turkish, Urdu and Uzbek. If you are a native speaker of one of these languages please contact the responsible office in your home country listed below under "Selection Process" to request more information.
