TCLP Teachers Gathered in Washington for the 2016 Welcome Orientation
The 10th cohort of exchange teachers prepare to take on roles as educators and cultural ambassadors in their host schools and communities
What’s your story?
This is the question that the TCLP teachers asked themselves at the start of the 2016 Welcome Orientation this summer in Washington, DC. During the opening session, exchange teachers discussed assumptions about their home countries that they expected to encounter in their U.S. communities. They also discussed the stories they hoped to share with their students, colleagues, and neighbors about China and Egypt during their program year as teachers and cultural ambassadors.
