U.S. Embassy Builds English Teaching Capacity in Mongolia

Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, November 5-9, 2007: The Public Affairs Section organized a week long Books-in-a-Box seminar for 50 secondary school English teachers, who came from all of the Mongolia provinces (aimags). PAS provided each of the teachers with a collection of more than 40 books as English teaching resource materials for their schools. Regional English Language Officer Damon Anderson, from the U.S. Embassy in Beijing, and English Language Specialist Dr. Patricia Sullivan conducted the training. The training covered such topics as methodologies for teaching English, how to use the books and reference materials provided, as well as some micro teaching for improving the participants’ lesson planning and teaching skills. This was a major educational project to mark the 20th anniversary of U.S.-Mongolia relations.
