Cengage, T4edu partner to better training for English teachers

A signing event in Riyadh recently commemorated the collaboration between Cengage and Tatweer Company for Educational Services (T4edu).

The partnership aims to provide professional development programs for Ministry of Education English teachers in Saudi Arabia. National Geographic Learning ELTeach resources will be made available to 1,000 teachers through Cengage.

"Saudi Arabia continues to show its commitment to education, as evidenced by the country's significant investments in quality learning materials," Alexander Broich, executive vice president at Cengage International, said. "We are honored to support the country's teachers of English with our ELTeach program, enabling English language learning to be introduced to students earlier in their studies."

T4edu CEO Dr. Nasser Al-Uwaishiq commented on the program after having enrolled 1,000 English teachers in the National Geographic Learning's ELTeach program.

"T4edu is looking forward to successfully conducting professional development programs for Ministry of Education English teachers in partnership with Cengage in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia,” he said. “Teachers participating in this program will significantly improve their teaching skills contributing to the continued improvement and development of the teaching and learning of English for the benefit of students in the kingdom of Saudi Arabia through T4edu initiated programs."
