Rwanda - English Teaching Assistant Award

The Fulbright English Teaching Assistant Program in Rwanda aims to strengthen educational and cultural relationships between the United States and Rwanda. Candidates selected for this award will assist with English language programming at a selected host institution. ETAs work approximately 20 hours per week assisting the principal classroom teacher or lecturer in their classrooms, plus requisite class preparation time and school-related activities. They may assist with developing communication modules, training academic and administrative staff, and assisting lecturers with their research, lesson plans, and course presentations to improve the English for academic reading and writing skills of university undergraduates or selected high schools, for whom English is both a second language and the medium of instruction. The program runs for 9 months, typically beginning in September/October 2026 and ending in June/July 2027. ETAs will be placed by the U.S. Embassy at technical colleges, universities, and/or other educational institutions, including high schools in both capital and secondary cities.
