January 25, 2006- "Re-qualification courses" for English teachers

Participants of the workshop and ELF Carol Narsh

On January 25, 2006 Senior English Language Fellow Carol Marsh conducted two workshops for 20 primary and secondary English teachers attending their compulsory “Re-qualification Course” in the Academy of Education under Ministry of Education of Kyrgyz Republic in Bishkek.  At the request of their training coordinator, they discussed the topics: “Getting Learners Involved” and “Many Ways to Teach Vocabulary”, from the previous sessions conducted on December 21, 2005. 

Teachers at the workshop

Deprived of many opportunities as well as teaching resources at their government schools, the teachers attending sessions were delighted to receive extensive handouts with numerous activities for each of the workshops.  Also, teachers received latest periodicals concerning English teaching.  The workshops will be conducted for the next training session at the end of March.
