As the department of ELT, we had the pleasure of welcoming Assoc. Professor, Dr Ainur Zhorabekova and Ms Moldir Kurmasheva from M. Auezov South Kazakhstan University as part of a collaborative academic exchange program on November, 10, 2025. The visit was supported within the framework of an institutional partnership aimed at strengthening ties between the two universities.

The primary goal of the visit was to establish academic and research connections, explore opportunities for joint projects, and discuss future collaborations in the field of foreign language teacher education. During their meetings, the participants exchanged ideas on advancing research practices, promoting staff and student mobility, and developing joint initiatives that support innovation in teacher training.
