Panama Bilingue
This is a joint venture between Tulane University and the Panamanian Ministry of Education. Panamanian primary and secondary English teachers come study at Tulane for eight weeks, where they learn about U.S. culture, receive advanced English instruction, and fine-tune their English-teaching capabilities. Our goal is to increase English competency as well as improve English pedagogy. Students come to Tulane twice a year- in spring and fall.
