They will also receive practical advice on how to prepare for the experience, how to deal with concepts such as culture shock, establishing belonging in a different culture, homesickness, and racial discrimination while overseas. Lastly, session presenters will also share ways to go about teaching abroad through district partnerships, search committees, and government opportunities.
