      IATEFL

      Hello everyone,

      I would like to share with you a recent reminder received from IATEFL (International Association of Teachers of English as a Foreign Language) on a number of different scholarships for English language teaching professionals.

      Many of the scholarships include, as part of the award, the registration fees for the 45th Annual IATEFL Conference & Exhibition (to be held in Brighton in 2011) and a year's membership of the Association. One of particular interest to us here in Brazil is the Latin American Scholarship, which aims to help a teacher or teacher trainer from a Latin American country to attend the IATEFL Annual Conference in Brighton 2011. That could be you!!!

      Find a list of all the scholarships, general guidelines and the specific conditions at www.iatefl.org/scholarships.

      Good luck to all of you!

      Marta

      There are two new scholarships funded by our dear SIGs: the Leadership and Management Scholarship and the BESIG Facilitator Scholarship; they require applicants to be speakers at conference.
       
      There are five new scholarships funded by Cambridge ESOL offering opportunities for professionals or post-graduates working in the areas of EL teaching, language assessment, teacher training, EAP, and state education to attend conference without the requirement of giving a paper.
       
      Improved awards are to be found in the Frank Bell IATEFL Scholarship as well as in IATEFL's own Ray Tongue and WR Lee Scholarships.
       
      Occasionally and surprisingly some scholarships have too few applicants. This happened last year with the Trinity College London Scholarships which were publicised rather late and with the Ray Tongue and WR Lee Scholarships where the value of the awards had eroded over time. It's well worth while taking another look at these scholarships.
