E-Teacher Program

The great news was finally announced!
About a month ago, Jesica and I received an e-mail from the US Embassy in Buenos Aires telling us that we had been nominated for the E-Teacher Program, an online program in different areas for English Language Teachers.
Yesterday we were officially announced that we have been accepted to take an online course on Business English, offered by the University of South Carolina.
Although we have a particularly hectic schedule at the moment, since we are designing an online course ourselves (and I am already teaching a TOEFL iBT Blended course), we are delighted at this new professional development opportunity.
I promise to blog more about it soon! :)

Dear Carla,
Very exciting news!!! Please, blog about it!
I wonder if they are having that in Brazil, too! Probably…
Let me know about how the course is flowing and what your plans are! It seems that we’re ready to start at Thomas, too! Let’s see what happens.
Beijos,
Carla
What great news, Carla! You deserve it! I’d like to know more about this online course. Please blog about it soon!
All the best,
Claudia
Thank you, girls!
So far I’ve just received a welcome e-mail from the lead instructor, Dr. Alexandra Rowe, telling us that we will receive the instructions on how to access our account in a few days. You can check out the course website here: http://web.epi.sc.edu/tbe/index.html/
I wanted to include the link to the information about the program, but it seems it’s no longer available. This is all I could find now: http://exchanges.state.gov/education/engteaching/
I’ll let you know as soon as the course starts!
Big hugs and happy teacher’s day!!
Congratulations, Carla! Good things are happening for you. Your new blog is a wonderful place to showcase all of your accomplishments. I’ll be checking back for an update on your course soon!
Dear Carla,
Good news. Congratulations! It’s a good opportunity to learn online and get more professional experience. I wish you have enough time and energy to be through this course and share new ideas with us.
Stay happy and the best of luck!
