The U.S. Embassy in Tajikistan announces the 2022-2023 Fulbright Teaching Excellence and Achievement Program, a program of the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA) and administered by IREX.

The Fulbright Teaching Excellence and Achievement (FTEA) Program provides international secondary-level teachers with unique opportunities to develop expertise in their subject areas, enhance their teaching skills, and increase their knowledge about the United States.  FTEA consists of a six-week non-degree, non-credit customized academic program, which includes seminars on new teaching methodologies, student-centered learning, content-based instruction, lesson planning, and instructional technology.  Participants will also take part in a practicum in a U.S. secondary school near their host university to work closely with U.S. teachers and teach and present to U.S. students.  Cultural enrichment, mentoring, and support will be provided throughout the program.  The international participants will travel to the United States in two cohorts of approximately 80 teachers each in January or September of 2023.

Fulbright Teachers support people-to-people diplomacy throughout their time in the United States, in U.S. host classrooms and communities.

Application deadline:  February 28, 2022.

Please submit online applications at https://fulbright.irex.org

Refer to the online application guide (PDF 1,471 KB) for detailed information on how to complete the application.
