Final Mentor Training in US Embassy

Final training of English Teacher Mentor program
Oct 7th, 2008 by sarband.
We participants of English Mentor program on October 6th had the last training with English specialist Bruce Lee Ingraham. As it was our last training we talked and discussed about all trainings we had this year. It must be mentioned we had 4 trainings with different English language specialists. All participants talked about what important things they learned from these trainings. Indeed, all trainings were very useful and informative and interesting. We updated our knowledge.
We learned many different ways to use Warm ups in the lessons, and chants and poems, fluency and accuracy. Earlier we paid little attention to phonetic because we focused on grammar, vocabulary and from training we were told about importance of phonetic and the ways how to use it.
All participants told that how they benefited from summer training which was from July 7th till 25th.It was the longest training and very useful. Our instructors Rich and Dot White gave us a lot of new information in Methodology and Materials Development and Professional development.

This summer training was very unforgettable and interesting. And it was very good organized all teachers stayed together morning till night. And we learned a lot from each other. Teachers were from different regions and with rich experience.
Now several mentor teachers got grant and will run one day workshop in their regions.
I want to thanks US Embassy for this fantastic program we English Teachers from different regions of Tajikistan take a lot of new information for ourselves and happy to share it with our colleagues. We appreciate how US Embassy contributes a lot in our Education system and for our country.A big Tajik Rahmat to US Embassy.
