ABOUT US




We work in partnership with the British Council:


1

Scholarships

We fund experienced ELT professionals including teachers, teacher-trainers, inspectors and materials writers to study for a master’s degree in TESOL, so that they can use this knowledge to enhance English teaching in their home countries. Our scholars come from many countries, including those in Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America.

2

Schools and workshops

We bring together teachers from neighbouring countries to participate in residential training events around the world.

3

Alumni network 

Our network allows Hornby scholars to exchange stories and advice and build their professional and personal relationships.

4

IATEFL Conference

Our  current scholars attend and present at IATEFL's annual conference.  We aso support the participation of Hornby alumni.
