Interestingly, it is a nine-month non-degree program that provides young instructors an opportunity, apart from teaching, to refine their teaching skills, increase their English language proficiency, and extend their knowledge of the cultures of the United States. 
Additionally, Mr. Sabir will be assisting up to twenty hours of teaching a week and is required to enrol in at least two courses per semester at the host institution, one of which must be in U.S. Studies. The remaining coursework is related to his major in English Literature.
