Georgia | English Language through Civic Education | 16 Dec 2011

English Language through Civic Education (ELCE) Program is about to launch into an active phase. Starting from February 2012 four American experts will work with the English language teachers of Georgia in five regions of Imereti, Samegrelo, Adjara, Shida Kartli da Kakheti in three teacher training cycles. Over 250 English teachers will be directly trained by American experts in the lifespan of the program. The trainings will focus on pedagogy and methodology of English language instruction as well as bringing civic education content into an English language class.

Teacher training modules and civics supplementary materials being developed by PH’s partner in the program - the Center of Intercultural Education and Development of Georgetown University, are going through final edits and PH is nearly through with the recruitment of four American English Language Teacher Trainers. Seems the ship is ready to sail away.

Clear skies, calm seas and happy sailing to ELCE!
