Fulbright Alumni Spotlight – Harish Yadav

Harish Yadav

Harish Yadav is an English language is an English language teaching facilitator and mentor teacher at Directorate of Education GNCT in Delhi, India. He is one of the Fulbright TEA scholars in the Fall 2023 Cohort at Kent State University.

The program hosted at Kent State offered him the opportunity to develop his facilitating skills and allowed him to focus more on expanding teachers’ soft skills in his mentee schools. During the six weeks spent in Ohio, he interacted with both faculty members at Kent State and Fulbright exchange teachers from 20 different countries.

He enjoyed the exchange of good practices during the program and workshops with his fellow Fulbright teachers at Kent State and, upon his return home, he started cascading his learnings to colleagues and other teachers at government schools in Delhi to introduce them to Developing Soft Skills for Effective Teaching, a workshop organized by State Council of Educational Research and Training in Delhi.

The experience at Kent State became a defining moment in his career, as he is currently using all the knowledge accumulated while in the U.S. to create a positive environment in India.
