Our International Education: Stories of Living, Teaching and Parenting Abroad
New book on Fulbright grant experiences of Monica Housen (’11 Dual Language High School, Balatonalmádi), Christine Tapu (’11 Teleki Blanka High School, Székesfehérvár) and Sherry Marx (’11 Eötvös Loránd University)
What makes a person pack up and move to another country? What does she or he hope to gain from the experience? How do children fit into the picture? Our International Education presents the stories of three American women, a university professor, a high school math teacher, and a high school English as a second language teacher, who move to Hungary for a year to teach. Each woman brings her young children and enrolls them in local Hungarian public schools though none of them speak Hungarian at the beginning of the experience.
