Tamsyn Stewart selected by U.S. Department of State for Virtual English Language Educator Program
The U.S. Department of State has announced the selection of Tamsyn Stewart of North Carolina for a virtual project, engaging with English language learners and teachers online in Morocco at Regional Centers of Education and Training. Stewart is among the more than 100 Virtual English Language Educator Program participants for the 2024-2025 academic year.
Stewart currently lives in Kitty Hawk with her daughter, who attends Water’s Edge Village School in Corolla. She received her B.A. from Middlebury College, and upon graduation, completed a two-year teaching commitment in the Rio Grande Valley of South Texas through the Teach for America Americorps Program. Her experiences in south Texas ignited her interest in both education and community service. Stewart completed her master’s in education at Peabody College at Vanderbilt University and taught special education for seven years in Atlanta, Ga. before moving to Richmond, Va. Stewart also received an ESL endorsement and began teaching English before moving. She discovered her true passion working with this population of students, teaching English to students in the public school system in Georgia and Virginia as well as to college students at Virginia Commonwealth University. Stewart is looking forward to her upcoming teaching opportunity in Morocco and the cultural exchange with the program participants.
The Virtual English Language Educator Program is the premier online opportunity for experienced teachers of English to speakers of other languages (TESOL) to enact meaningful and sustainable changes in the way that English is taught abroad. Through projects developed by U.S. Embassies in more than 80 countries, Virtual Educators work with local teachers, students, and educational professionals to improve the quality of English language instruction offered at prestigious universities, academic institutions, and cultural centers.
English Language Programs has placed thousands of TESOL scholars and educators with international partner institutions, abroad and virtually, to promote English language learning, enhance English teaching capacity, and foster mutual understanding between the U.S. and other countries through cultural exchange. These projects are challenging and the teachers selected represent the best of the U.S. TESOL community. Virtual Educators are among the more than 50,000 individuals participating in U.S. Department of State exchange programs each year.
English Language Programs is administered by the Center for Intercultural Education and Development at Georgetown University.
