Studying at IUCA helped me to gain profound knowledge of teaching methodology and to master my academic skills. To start with, the academic staff includes professional and dedicated teachers who guided me in my learning pathway.
The IUCA faculty consists of educators who use innovative and critical approaches to teach IUCA students. In addition, a specialized and well-structured university program provides a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of the subject area and encourages student motivation. Furthermore, a dynamic classroom environment and different extracurricular activities helped me develop my language and academic skills.
I participated in different university contests and for a year, I was the Vice-President of the Student Senate «Event Management» at IUCA. Therefore, I obtained the relevant education and qualifications required for my desired career in the future.
After graduating from the IUCA, I got a full scholarship to study for a master's degree in teaching at the American University of Central Asia. My strong teaching background and high language skills helped me successfully graduate from the AUCA and achieve academic excellence there.
Importantly, I am a Fulbright Teaching Excellence and Achievement Program 2022 alumna. I passed the professional development course for educators at the University of Wisconsin, Madison in the USA. I worked for 4 years in the private Bilimkana Kara-Balta School where I was in charge of the English language department. Currently, I work online for OSUN Hubs Connected Learning Initiatives. I am an English instructor teaching Academic English courses for Bangladesh and African students.
To conclude, I strongly believe that studying at the International University of Central Asia helped me to become a professional English teacher and accomplish my career goals.
