PSY-5120GFS: Global Field Study

The literature is replete with research that shows developing multicultural competence is an essential task for contemporary psychotherapists. It also shows that cultural immersion experiences are among the best ways to develop and enhance this competence. In service of this as a best practice in the field, we have developed an overseas service learning/cultural immersion opportunity via WorldTeach’s summer teach abroad program. The course includes a two month stay in a foreign country (China, Ecuador, Morocco, Nepal, or Poland) during which participants will teach English to under-resourced children and adults while living with local families. In order to participate in this course, learners must apply to and be accepted into the WorldTeach Summer Teach Abroad Program (worldteach.org).
