 Posted: Thu Dec 01, 2011 1:43 pm Post subject: TEACHING PRACTICUM |
 |
|
| I am currently in the final stages of completing my MA TESOL, I already have a B. Ed. My problem is that I need to do a teaching practicum from Jan-April and I am not sure how to go about finding a sponsoring teacher. I live in Dubai and would like to do my practicum in an adult education environment. Any suggestions for where and how to start? Many thanks. |

| Adult Education - Don't try HCT - just check out HCT sucks. I know "they" have tried to block it but a lot of my friends can still manage to get in. |

| Why don't you try the Canadian institution in Qatar? You might have some luck there plus I hear it's a great place to work. |

| Thanks for the suggestion about Qatar, since I live in Dubai, I would like to find someone based here to oversee my practicum. |

| Paxtus, contact the AMIDEAST UAE office as well as the TESOL Arabia folks for suggestions on where you might complete your supervised teaching. When I needed ideas for my practicum, my local TESOL affiliate was an invaluable resource. Of course, it helped that I was already a member. |
