campus. To get there, take the Comorro road out from the city, and turn inland
(left) at the Leader supermarket. Drive straight through the intersection with
the back ‘Banana’ road (which links Bairro Pite and Delta). Then take the second
road left. Follow this road until you get to a T-junction, then head right. The
campus is about 100 metres along on your left, up a narrow track through some
paddocks. If catching a taxi, stress that this is the Aimutin campus, not our
old campus in Bairro Pite. Many Timorese know the school as “Eskola
Dit”.<BR><BR>Cost: $120

plus $17.50 for the Peace Corps East Timor Tetun Language Course if you don’t
have it.<BR><BR>Level: Beginner:
Absolute beginner, or can communicate minimally on everyday topics, but cannot
yet ask and answer all basic
questions.<BR><BR>
Intermediate: Can converse, but not yet handle formal
situations.<BR><BR>Teachers: The teachers and tutors will all be East
Timorese, with the exception of the course coordinator, Catharina Williams-van
Klinken, who has a PhD in Tetun.<BR><BR>Method: Most teaching
will be in small groups, with a variety of teachers and teaching methods.
Teaching is monolingual in Tetun, but the book and some written material uses
English.<BR><BR><BR><BR>For those who are beyond the absolute beginner stage, we
will schedule a brief interview before the course, to enable us to determine
which group would most benefit you.<BR><BR><BR><BR>For more information or for
