International Education Week is a joint initiative of the U.S. Department of State and U.S. Department of Education to promote programs that prepare Americans for a global environment and attract future leaders from abroad to study, learn, and exchange experiences in the U.S.
Local AFSers will share their stories at school and community events throughout the U.S. to promote intercultural understanding and awareness. All these activities highlight the stories of AFS Exchange Students and their families, as well as those of the educators, volunteers, and community members whose lives have been touched in sharing with students and teachers from other countries and cultures. U.S. Secretary of Education, Arne Duncan, said, “A complete education in the 21st century must teach our children about their interdependent world, and it must prepare them to be good leaders and good global citizens. International awareness and knowledge can help our children build the skills needed to communicate and cooperate with those from other nations and other cultures. And as they participate in international education and international exchange, our students can gain the knowledge and experiences to help them contribute to a sustainable future for all.”

The Miss Tennky Area Team has forty-three (43) AFSers who are studying in the area this year from over twenty (20) different countries.About AFS
AFS is a worldwide, nonprofit organization that has been leading international high school student exchange for more than 60 years. Each year, AFS-USA sends more than 1,400 U.S. students abroad, provides approximately $3 million in scholarships and financial aid, and welcomes 2,500 international high school students who come to study in U.S. high schools and live with host families. More than 6,000 volunteers in the U.S. make the work of AFS possible.
Most of the teachers in our region are highly unprepared for immigrant students that are moving into the area. I'm wondering how other teachers are handling the challenges. How prepared do you feel to teach students who don't speak English? What is your school doing, or what should they be doing to get us ready?

Aloha! wix
Do you really need a Masters to get a job as an ESOL/ESL teacher? Could I get one with only an add-on certification?
I think I would enjoy it. Granted, I am LEARNING Spanish (but speak French) -- so it would be a longer-term goal. I'm just looking for opinions. Thanks!
