NETC provides one free place on each tour for a teacher/group leader to ensure that our students are adequately chaperoned. We also provide enrichment bonuses and other professional courtesies for our teachers/group leaders as follows:
Teacher Benefits
Free International Cell Phone
Teachers are provided with a free international cell phone to use on tour. The phone will have a $10 credit loaded on it when you receive it. Students can rent phones from the same company and in many cases calls between your group members are free.
Single Rooms
NETC head teachers and group organizers enjoy a single room each night of their tour. You may of course share a double or twin if you prefer.
Included Insurance
The basic insurance which NETC includes for students is also included for teachers. The coverage provided in this policy is extremely important.
Private Tours
Meeting and traveling with other groups is an enriching experience and the highlight of many tours. However some teachers prefer to take a private tour. This can be done by special arrangement.
Or
If you Enroll 30 Students by 10/15/2008, you will qualify for a private tour in 2009.
