You must log in to view sessions Teachers Helping Teachers SIG Forum

This forum will bring together Teaching Helping Teachers (THT) members, country coordinators and other interested parties. Invited speakers from some of the THT programs will talk about their experiences with THT, recent workshops/programs and plans going forward. Due to COVID-19 the various THT 2020 programs were canceled or moved online, and we would also like to share lessons learned and future direction for our SIG.
