English Teaching Assistant Program (ETA)
The Fulbright English Teaching Assistant (ETA) Program is an opportunity for American university graduates to teach English in Moroccan higher institutions. Each year 8-12 young Americans are selected for the program.
ETAs are mainly primary teachers within Moroccan public universities and higher institutions. While ETAs help teach English language, they also serve as cultural ambassadors for the U.S. within their communities.
