  I coordinate the Fulbright Program of English Teaching Assistants in the Czech Republic. During each academic year, I work very closely with about 30 young Americans who assist with English language education at various schools all around the country. I assist the grantees prior to their arrival. I plan and organize their in-country orientation, and I keep in close touch with them during their stay in the Czech Republic. I work very closely with Czech teachers, who serve as mentors to the English Teaching Assistants, to support them in their new role and to assist with potential issues. The energy, impact and professional, as well as personal connections that are built via the Program keep me inspired and motivated.
