The English Teacher Training College 3.57

The English Teacher Training College and its associated Bilingual Classroom Initiative (ABCi) is a nonprofit Austrian college with a dual mission to help young people: Firstly, as a college, to provide a practical TEFL education for Student Teachers from the English-speaking world and Austria along with in-service teacher training for existing teachers to help improve language teaching in Austria and neighboring countries. Secondly, as a charity outreach, to promote language learning, social skills, and cultural exchange between English-speaking countries and Austria. We aim to reach every child in Austria with a free English project by the year 2020 and transform language teaching using student-centered communicative language teaching methodologies by bringing hundreds of young teachers from the UK, US, Canada, Ireland, South Africa, Jamaica, Australia, and New Zealand into Austrian classrooms.
