OISE Young Learners Scholarship

This scholarship is funded by OISE to enable a practising teacher of young learners to lead a workshop at the IATEFL annual conference for the first time.  It is not necessary to be a member of IATEFL to apply.

The award consists of:

  • a conference registration
  • £580 towards accommodation and travel costs
  • a year's membership to IATEFL

To qualify you must:

  • be a practising teacher of young learners (18 years old or younger)
  • be a first time speaker at the IATEFL Conference

To be considered you should apply online including:

  • a summary, between 400 and 500 words, of how you have incorporated a high level of challenge for your students in your teaching and how you have helped your students go beyond their expectations of themselves.
  • a brief curriculum vitae (2 sides A4 maximum)
  • a passport sized photo (for inclusion in the conference programme if you win)
  • a speaker proposal

If you are a member of IATEFL please submit online.

If you are not a member of IATEFL please complete the special speaker registration form downloadable from the Scholarships page as you will not be able to submit online without a valid membership number.  If you are the winner of this scholarship, a year's membership is paid for by the scholarship as all presenters must be members of IATEFL.

The submission date is 22nd August 2011.  You will be informed about the award around the end of September 2011.
