The Center of International Relations (CRI) submitted this proposal to the CAPES Program/Fulbright of English Teaching Assistant – ETA. The State University of the North of Paraná (UENP) is now receiving now English Teaching Assistants (ETAs) in 2018-2019. ETAs are US citizens, native speakers, all carefully selected according to the profile of each university by Fulbright, an American educational, cultural program, established to increase mutual understanding between the people of the United States and other 150 countries, awarding scholarships for research and teaching by American citizens. The ETA program aims to contribute to English language teaching in the graduation course for the Department of English language of Brazilian universities as well as supporting the language centers and other foreign language programs. UENP has already various initiations for teaching English, such as the program Paraná fala Inglês (Paraná speaks English), Idiomas sem Fronteiras (Languages without Borders) and the International Center of Languages, this way being one of 40 higher education institutions in Brazil with an approved proposal. The proposal lasts for two years, including four (4) assistants of teaching per year. The participating ETAs of the program are selected by Fulbright in the USA later this year and are receiving the benefits provided under an Edictal to accomplish activities in Brazil from February throughout a period of nine months. The Coordinator of International Relations of UENP is sure that this will be a great opportunity for our university community interacting with native speakers in real-life situations, contacting American language and culture. „Students of the Language Faculty at UENP and from the International Center of Languages can benefit from this program and other programs like PFI, IsF”, said Eliane.
