Why do even the most dedicated teachers burn out and leave schools?
Quality education is impossible without basic conditions. But in remote regions, they are often simply missing:
How can we teach children computer literacy if there are no computers at school?
How can teachers educate when basic needs for clean water, hygiene, and hot meals are not met?
A teacher is a person just like any of us, with their own limits and emotional resources. The lack of basic conditions reduces teaching efficiency, leading to fatigue and burnout.
That’s why we at Good Neighbors Kyrgyz Republic don't stay on the sidelines! To create a strong foundation of support for teachers and children, we:
Equip computer classrooms (STEM);
Install drinking water filters and build modern sanitation facilities;
Organize healthy school meals and develop school gardens;
Conduct trainings for both teachers and students;
Organize mobile medical check-ups by bringing qualified specialists and equipment directly to the regions;
Systematically strengthen the educational environment.
Dear teachers and educators!
We sincerely congratulate you on your professional holiday! Thank you for your resilience, patience, and invaluable work. We are happy to stand by your side and support you on this journey.
Happy Education Workers' Day and World Teachers' Day!

A three-day training program for 69 teachers of Mathematics, Russian, and Kyrgyz languages from schools in Issyk-Kul, Jalal-Abad, Chuy, and Osh regions was successfully conducted in Bishkek.
The event was organized under the project "Enhancing Teachers’ Qualifications for General Republican Testing Preparation" in partnership with the Center for Educational Assessment and Teaching Methods (CEATM) @ort_ceatm_official.
The program was aimed at strengthening teachers' professional competencies for effective preparation of high school graduates for the General Republican Testing (GRT). Over three days of intensive work, participants together with experienced experts (Farkhad Ismailov, Azamat Omorov, and Tatyana Matokhina) thoroughly analyzed the structure and tasks of the GRT, mastered modern methodologies for developing students' logical and analytical thinking, and received a set of educational and methodological materials along with certificates of completion.
Empowering teachers is an important contribution of Good Neighbors toward ensuring quality and accessible education, as well as creating new opportunities for the future of youth in the Kyrgyz Republic.
