[Bachelor or Master degree] Fulbright - Badan Bahasa Foreign Language Teaching Assistant (FLTA) Program, US

This non-degree program is for teachers of English or Indonesian-as-a-foreign language to teach Indonesian language for one academic year (nine months) at an American university. This is an opportunity to refine their teaching skills, increase their English-language proficiency, and extend their knowledge of the cultures and customs of the United States. In turn, it is hoped that their teaching will strengthen the instruction of foreign languages at US colleges and universities. Participants will teach up to 20 hours per week and enroll in at least two American Studies and Teaching of English as a Second Language (TESL) methodology classes per semester.

This program in Indonesia is a collaboration between American Indonesian Exchange Foundation (AMINEF) and the Language Development and Fostering Agency, or Badan Bahasa, under the Indonesian Ministry of Education and Culture.
