The US Embassy in Bahrain has announced the competition for the Fulbright Foreign Language Teaching Assistant (FLTA) Program for 2022.

The Fulbright FLTA is a nine-month, non-degree seeking program sponsored by the US Department of State. The FLTA program provides participants with an opportunity to increase their English language proficiency and extend their knowledge of the society and culture of the US.

They will also have a chance to refine their teaching skills while teaching their native language (Arabic) to US students and strengthen foreign language instruction at US colleges and universities.

LTA participants also interact with their host communities through extracurricular activities and community outreach projects. The deadline for accepting applications is August 1, 2021.
