The Fulbright Teaching Excellence and Achievement (TEA) Program is available to educators worldwide through the U.S. Department of Education. International secondary-level teachers are brought to the US for a six-week professional development experience at a host university through this fully sponsored program. Academic seminars on subjects like content-based instruction, instructional technology, student-centered learning, and novel teaching approaches are attended by participants. Additionally, they work with a U.S. partner educator in a nearby secondary school for at least 40 hours of fieldwork. Cultural activities to learn about American towns and society are part of the program. The basic curriculum or specialty cohorts that concentrate on media literacy, gender, or environmental education are available to educators. This is a special chance to improve teaching abilities and acquire global experience.
