Ray Tongue Scholarship

A conference scholarship for teachers from East and South East Asia

This scholarship was set up in memory of our late Treasurer, with the purpose of helping IATEFL members in the countries he was associated with (see below) to attend the IATEFL Annual Conference and give a presentation or lead a workshop. Initially, donations came from the many generous people who knew our treasurer. These days many IATEFL members and delegates make regular donations to the fund because they support its aims.

The award consists of:

• a conference registration
• £1000 towards conference-related expenses

To qualify applicants must:

• be an individual member of IATEFL
• be a native of the following countries: Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Sri Lanka or Thailand
• agree to submit by June 2012 a 250 word article on your impressions of the conference for publication in IATEFL Voices

To be considered you should apply online including:

• a 400-500 word explanation of how attending the conference would benefit you with specific reference to relevant work, study or research planned and/or carried out
• a brief curriculum vitae (2 sides A4 maximum)
• a passport sized photo (for inclusion in the conference programme if you win)
• a speaker proposal  (please submit online). Please note that your proposal must be submitted by the scholarship application deadline of 22nd August 2011.

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