Launch of the Suzanne Furstner Foundation Scholarship 2010

Every year the Suzanne Furstner Foundation, set up in memory of the former head of Cactus TEFL, Suzanne, invites applications for a TEFL course scholarship.

Suzanne was tragically lost in 2006, and each year since a scholarship has been offered – first in Spain, then in Latin America and most recently in Italy.

This year, the Scholarship Prize is a four-week CELTA course in San Francisco (with host family accommodation) plus a 20 hour part-time language course in one of our UK or US locations. Return travel New York – San Francisco (or equivalent) is also included.

The 2010 scholarship assignment is to write a maximum of 1,000 words on the topic ‘San Francisco’, interpreted any way you choose. In addition to this, candidates should complete a short language awareness task. Entries will be accepted from mid-June until October 1st 2010 and should be submitted by filling out our entry form.

The winner will be chosen by a 3-person committee: Jenny Johnson, Cactus Academic Director, Sarah Wilson, International Officer at Sussex Downs College, and one other person to be confirmed.

The 2010 Scholarship winner will be announced in October 2010.
