Project Description
The EL Fellow will teach university EFL classes to first or second year students for three hours per day, three days per week during each academic semester at Aden University’s Faculty of Education in Khormaksar. Priority will be given to the teaching of speaking skills, although depending upon scheduling, the EL Fellow may be asked to teach writing or reading classes as well. The Khormaksar, Aden, Faculty of Education is a brief walk or bus ride away from the EL Fellow residence. At AMIDEAST Aden, the EL Fellow will be tasked with teaching one class (two hours per day, five days per week) of Access Microscholarship students. An important component of the Access Microscholarship program is transmitting cultural information and values to enrolled students. The EL Fellow, as a US citizen, should be able to perform these objectives well. In performing these duties, the EL Fellow will obtain further, varied classroom experience under the guidance of AMIDEAST Aden's Academic and Teacher Coordinators.
