Welcome

UzTEA

The activity of the Association of Teachers of the English language of Uzbekistan was founded in 1996 with the aim of ensuring the quality of teaching in English in accordance with international requirements.

Currently, the association has created a model of personnel training based on the law "On Education", the National Training Program and the requirements of the State Committee for Foreign Languages PCM No. 124 of May 08, 2013, and since February 18, 2017, the organization has received the status of the Uzbekistan Teachers of English Association

Our Mission

UzTEA (Uzbekistan Teachers of English Association) has created a professional network and brought together English teachers from all over the country, and now it's time for professional development. One of the incentives for self-motivation of teachers is a prize specially organized for English teachers. The state award 'The best teacher of the year' was also established. Unlike similar awards, the UzTEA Teacher of the Year award will be awarded not only to teachers in public schools, but to all levels of the education system meeting the CEFR levels, from A1 to C1 public sector to tertiary education. Currently, UzTEA is working on the project 'Program of continuous improvement of professional competence of teachers'. This project provides for the continuous improvement of the professional competence level from the novice teacher to the level of the highest research-oriented teacher - as a national expert at the international level.

In 2019, the association began teaching English in rural schools for two weeks and reached over 1000 students, where young ELT professionals, winners in various UzTEA competitions for teachers, shared their knowledge and innovative methods of teaching English with their peers and sparked the love of teaching and learning English by all participants

The annual UzTEA conferences are designed to provide a unique opportunity to meet with leading trainers, theorists and writers and exchange ideas with professional colleagues from all sectors of teaching and learning English. It also helps amateur ELT teachers to establish contacts with those who have many years of experience behind them. This gives them a new opportunity for self-reflection, creating an open stage for learning from professionals and national and international ELT experts. Every year, numerous professional events are held at the local and national levels, offering teachers and other ELT professionals opportunities to learn, share and communicate. However, this year, supporting continued teaching and learning is more critical than ever due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

For ELT specialists, this period is quite difficult and transformative, since there is no easily accessible manual that could give appropriate answers. The overall goal of UzTEA is to promote seminars and trainings on continuous professional development as an adaptive response to emerging problems in the field of education and to protect the educational opportunities of young people during and after the pandemic.
