About This Opportunity

The English Teaching Assistant Program in Georgia is designed to strengthen English language instruction at Georgian higher education institutions, especially in places where the presence of native speakers is not common. The program provides U.S. participants with opportunities for professional development and intensive cross-cultural interaction in their host communities. ETAs teach under the supervision of experienced local English instructors and serve as resources for conversation, vocabulary, and reading and writing courses at universities, typically outside the capital city. The 9-month grant begins in September and ends in June. Grantees are expected to engage in supplementary projects related to their personal, career, or educational interests, such as extracurricular clubs or activities that complement their teaching responsibilities. The program welcomes well-rounded, articulate graduating seniors or recent graduates with an interest in international education and the initiative to teach conversational English at the university level. While undergraduate degrees in humanities and social sciences are preferred, applicants with degrees in other areas will be considered.
