EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY FOR TURKISH TEACHERS

The Turkish Cultural Foundation is seeking Turkish teachers to participate as volunteers on the TCF 2012 Teacher Study. Tours with a view to facilitate educational exchanges between Turkish and American educators. The TCF 2012  Teacher Study Tours will visit Istanbul, Canakkale, Bursa, Kusadasi, Pamukkale, Konya, Goreme and Ankara. The groups follow a program led by a professional tour guide that highlights the cultural and historical sites of the regions they visit. Selected Turkish teachers from these regions must be prepared to travel to Istanbul for an interview with TCF, and, if selected, participate in a one-day orientation program in Istanbul. Selected teachers will participate in the study tours, when the groups visit their city/region. TCF will sponsor travel to and one night stay in Istanbul for the teacher orientation program, as well as meals while accompanying the tours.
