The
Conference for English language teachers will be organized by AEPE students
from Jalal Abad and Osh oblasts as the final project enhancement activity for
community. Our students are Ambassadors of English language to the community
where they live and to others who are interested to learn and grow
professionally as educators in Kyrgyzstan’s schools. 
At the first day the program starts with the orientation session about the goals and objectives of the training. This training will be helpful to organize a final project work and to work in small and collaborative groups in order to organize working groups which will be responsible for different tasks to organize a big final project.
Ice breaking and group formation activities allowed our students to know each other better and to ask questions about the personal and school life.
At the same time, it was a short time to organize team bulding activities, such as morning exercise, games at the end of the day,trip to the Waterfall, etc. Students partcipated very actively.
The sessions were interesting for students and productive, such as discussion and practicing ideas about Teaching Receptive skills; Listening and Reading; Using video in Language Learning; Using Graphic Organizers in the English Classroom;and a Final project discussion. Students discussed the listening and reading difficulties and where we as teachers have to pay attention to. At the demo lesson "Dreams", trainers used several activities to listen, read, and to work with the text. They could analyze the role of the reading and listening for the learners, and challenges in the process of teaching and learning. It was very interesting to practice with watching video clips to answer to the series of questions about them. Through the comprehensive tasks students worked with the texts and discussed videos.
We will never forget a wonderful trip to the small Waterfall!!! We climbed the hills; bought a lot of souvenirs and kurtaps which were eaten on the way to the top of the mountain; and could take a lot of beautiful and unforgetable pictures!
Trainers presented a session about Mobile Learning through the questions and answers. It was very interesting, because students could use at the lesson their mobile phones and to conduct a dialogue in pairs. Teachers can plan such lessons at their schools. Finally, AEPE students presented their demo lessons that they prepared during the training. In each team were three teachers and they had to demonstrate a team work, interactive methods of work, and strategies/activities that they have learned through the training. All lessons were prepared very well and teachers demonstrated creativity and a big enthusiasm in preparation and presentation. 
The training “American
studies” motivated my students to learn more about American history, culture,
education, holidays, famous people, music, and food. Training was organized by
the Director of ACCELS Ms. Rebecca and Peace Corps volunteers. Students have learned about different genres
of the music and could identify and differentiate different many of them while
they listened to them. AEPE students actively worked in groups and prepared
American salads: fruit salad, Potato salad, Macaroni salad, and so on… It was a
great fun, as everyone could try each of them and enjoy the way of preparation
salads together, in groups. Through all of sessions, group work, and
presentations students have got new information, worked in one team, found
friends- teachers from different groups, and improved their English language
skills.
AEPE student
, Ms. Ainagul organized a demo lesson that proposed for the project work with
lesson plans. Students have learned the construction of direct and indirect
speeches and practiced it by using the text and different handouts. Students
(Malika, Irasagul, Kanykei, and Nazgul) observed the lesson and organized
a round table to give a constructive feedback . Lesson plan is attached
in the previous post.
The proposal for
the whole Project work is to teach about Kyrgyz culture, education, fashion,
food, music, and etc. through the small projects for participants-students from
different faculties of Osh city. 
Coordinator of the program supported
in getting access to computer lab with access to Internet at the Faculty. AEPE
students created their 
Demonstrative
lessons allow all AEPE students to learn on practice, analyze and reflect
through the feedback after the lesson on the activities organized for students
and on preparation and organization of the lesson by the teacher. At this month
it was a turn for Aselya and Malika. Aselya presented the topic “Healthy and unhealthy
food” for 7th grade students at school #52. Students divided food on different categories:
fruits, vegetables, drinks and discussed the type of food that is beneficial
for people and harmful. Students were involved actively into discussion,
conducted short dialogues, and guessed words in the puzzle. 
Together
with AEPE students we also observed the lesson “Importance of money in our life”
that was prepared by Malika for the 1st -level students at Business
and Management Faculty. Discussions,
sharing ideas through the group work, matching currencies, true and false
activity were very interesting for students there. Positive learning environment
and student-centered approaches of work were motivating for students to
participate actively and to learn with enthusiasm.
It gets to
be “a tradition” at our program to make in input into community and AEPE
students could organize an interesting Project Enhancement activity for
students of different faculties. The topic for discussion was about the
importance of money in our life. All students took a turn to organize sessions
during the project. They presented ideas through the PPT, playing with students
in the economical game-auction, and discussing the topic on different questions
associated with this topic.
At the
Native Speaker Club, Paula presented very interesting and actual for our days
topic “Resume and CV”. Students could compare and contrast them, and to learn
more about writing Resume. 
"I learnt today from Gulnara's presentation to concretisize my presentation because "Teaching philosophy is really a wide topic, wide aspect of our life, it's our profession and it's really big. I like experiments I held with my students, their philosophies. It's fruitful that I know their learning styles and I can change my lessons according to their learning styles. At next time I want to present the results of my lessons with changes. Then, I think our students-flowers will blossom better and there will be more great people, ministries, ambassadors, as I expect from my students, according to my teaching phiosophy."
"I think that my presentation was clear for all participants. I could shae my teaching philosophy with them. I could answer to all questions of our teachers. Next presentation will be better. I could take more approaches of work rom my groupmates. They also presented own ideas and teaching methods, how to imagine and to compare learning styles. All of presenters demonstrated creativity in poster paper and in presentation." Hamdamova Gulnora
"I got a lot of new for me ideas about teching. As a eacher I should think about student's motivation. First of all to enrich student's knowledge we have to raise their interests in learning. Teachers should carefully plan lessons. Through this presentation I could share my opinion and think about my teaching." Kanykey
"I am as a student learning more about myself, and than about my role as a teacher".I liked that I could explain every photo that I posted and that I could share my ideas about my world to others. From Ms.Irasagul’s presentation I got that presentation might look like simple and not understandable when you see it at the first time but after explanation of it, you understand the deep meaning of it. Don't hurry up by giving evaluation or taking a decision.Probably I would like to change a theme of my presentation because I felt a shame that my theme of presentation was different (I was confused). Also extremely I felt that I don't have my own point of view in one-two words, and I suffered from lack of words. I would like to change it and to write my own ideas Murod
"I presented my ideas about my teaching philosophy, but the best expereince for me was to listen to others. I agree that we have to think about our learners because they need our help and support. In my presentation had to involve my groupmates into converstaion or interactive discussion." Nazgul
"I like my presentation becaue poster itself is philosophical: we can't live without air, water, and fire and we can't live without learning or knowledge.I lernt from others that teacher should know first of all about own teaching philosophy, and should know more about students' philosophy too. For the next time, I will try to present the topic with attention to the students' philoophy: what do they learn, what are they doing now?are they satisfied with my teaching, etc. shall I have better knowledge to prepare to the lessons in more creative and effective way. I will take in consideration all of these points."
"Every person is unique, so all of ours students prepared and presented their posters differently the first. As in proverb says: "Many men, many minds". I liked all posters of my groupmates. They learned that we are in a team., for example: Nazgul's tree; Malika's flower; Ainagul's sun with flowers;Irasagul's Earth have so many common in teaching. I could take some ideas about my groupmates' teaching phlosophy, their styles and methods of teaching, activities that they use in the classroom. their own learning styles and of course their students' too. At the same tim, I have learned some ideas of poster presentation."
It was a great experience to observe a demo lesson, that Ms. Mirgul organized at her faculty, and to provide a feedback to her. Through this activity, students could analyze one more time the role of student-centered approaches at the lesson, and the role of the teacher in lesson preparation and presentation. This "lesson" that includes a lesson and a feedback is very beneficial for teachers, because they learn better through the prompts, challeneges, and mistakes. The lesson was organized and prepared very well, different interesting activities were used. Students were involved in the learning process and they shared their thoughts in pair and in a group work. The teacher applied audio files, video to support presentation and students shared in their reflection that they have learned a lot through this lesson.
AEPE students made their input into community by organizing the project enhancement activity. At this month they invited students from three faculties and discussed the topic about the celebration of Nooruz, the history of this events, the steps in food(Sumolok) preparation and played through the role play the legend about this holiday. All members of the team worked together, and they were excited through
this activity to organize this project for students . All participants were actively involved and enjoyed the
activity. AEPE students got more ideas about the project organization and can apply this knowledge into their schools by organizing activities or club at their working place.
