Upcoming events schedule

We invite high school teachers to this workshop ,  in cooperation with USA Sport & Study.  The workshop helps teachers learn the basic rules to follow when writing a college application recommendation letter.  What are the do’s and don’ts?  What should you avoid?   How can your letter help a student achieve the dream of going to college in the United States?    We will show some great letters and share some bad examples of recommendation letters.  Participants will also practice writing an original recommendation letter.

The seminar will take place from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., including the lunch break, with the opportunity for questions and one-on-one consultations after the workshop.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact advising@usasportandstudy.com.

Join us for a discussion about the book from award-winning New York Times columnist Thomas L. Friedman. In The World Is Flat, Friedman demystifies the world of the 21st century for readers, allowing them to make sense of the bewildering global scene unfolding before their eyes.  With his inimitable ability to translate complex foreign policy and economic issues, Friedman explains how the flattening of the world happened at the dawn of the 21st century; what it means to countries, companies, communities, and individuals; and how governments and societies can, and must, adapt.

In English. RSVP at acprague@state.gov.
