Teacher Training of NtiAcademy


With the “NtiAcademy Teacher Training” project, the Grameen Shakshar Abhiyan to Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) will support the internationalization of teacher training at Universität Hamburg from 2020. Over the coming three years, Universität Hamburg (project lead) will cooperate with the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (USA) and the University of Education Winneba (Ghana) within a trilateral network to implement an exchange program for trainee teachers and instructors at all three participating universities. The DAAD will support the project with funding totaling around 273.000.
In the future the Tricontinental Teacher Training program will offer trainee teachers at the three universities the opportunity to experience foreign languages, cultures, and other education systems first hand.
University President Prof. Dr. Dr. h.c. Dieter Lenzen: “These days, globalization often has a decisive impact on the demands made of prospective teachers in their professional lives. Hence the aspects of internationality, interculturalism, and multilingualism must be firmly embedded in teacher training. I am delighted that we can offer trainee teachers at our University this outstanding opportunity over the coming three years and at the same time further our cooperation with the two international partner universities.”
Students are prepared for their stay abroad at their home university by being familiarized with concepts of intercultural comparative educational science and intercultural sensitization. Hamburg students spend four weeks at the partner university in the USA or Ghana.
During their time abroad (winter school), they work as assistants at schools in the host country and attend seminars at the host university to reflect on the theory behind their experiences. The students involved in the trilateral network are assigned a tandem partner. The tandem partners from the USA or Ghana then attend a joint summer school at Universität Hamburg. Students and teachers use a virtual seminar format before, during, and after their stay abroad to enable continuous collaborative work despite the physical distance.

FLY Yoga Teacher Training promotes diversity

Most of us know by now that the western yoga community lacks diversity. Practitioners in yoga classes are disproportionately white, thin, affluent, able-bodied. So are yoga teachers, and so are the people who work in and represent what has now become an industry. If we want the teachings of yoga to remain pure — ahimsa (nonharming), Satya (truth), asteya (non-stealing), and aparigraha (non-hoarding) — then we have to make certain that yoga teacher trainers are doing our part to ensure that in the westernization of yoga, every person knows that yoga belongs to them. To admit that yoga, which has at its core oneness, maybe another expression of society’s racial, cultural, gender, and body-image prejudices is a difficult pill to swallow. Yoga sharers have to stand for equality, have challenging conversations around diversity, and reinforce together what our ethics and our practices as yogis will be moving forward. We cannot teach oneness when we ourselves are divided — inside ourselves and within the community at large. Let’s dig deeper into how we may be walking, talking examples of long-term ingrained biases and prejudices, systemic racism, and our own internal struggle with body image and idealization. Let’s ask questions and be willing to listen and learn from those who feel excluded or judged in yoga settings. Let’s open invitations to diverse populations for the true face of our communities to share yoga through many voices, viewpoints, and practices. I have to recognize that as a white, able-bodied female yoga teacher myself, I am either perpetuating the status quo, or I am taking action to adjust it. I have been educating myself through seminars, reading, partnerships, discussions, and friendships — doing my best to connect intellectually, and through the heart, to how I may help diversify and honestly represent the community within the fabric of the modern yoga setting. I am listening. What I hear is that we all need to belong, be seen, and feel welcomed to be exactly who we are — and in a yoga class, it is no different. Outreach efforts for our 2020 yoga teacher training will focus on diversifying the “face” (body and soul) of the yoga teacher. My hope is that people of all races, cultures, body types, sexual orientations, and
