Russian Teaching Assistants

[Janneke van de Stadt]

Dear John,

We bring a TA from the Moscow City Pedinstitut every year to assist in language courses.  The TAs earn a stipend, teach 2-3 sections of language courses per semester, plan cultural events, and take one or two college courses for credit per semester.

Best wishes,
Janneke

We have been using Fulbright FLTAs for seven years now,  but there was a budget cut in the Russian FLTA program this year, and we didn’t get one (I’m assuming some others out there are in the same boat). Assuming the budget is restored, we have every intention of continuing with Fulbright, as we have been very happy with the program, but it would seem that making any assumptions about budgets right now would be rather imprudent. So we were wondering if anyone has any knowledge of or experience with other such programs. Any info would be much appreciated!
