There are many volunteers of the National Red Crescent Society of Turkmenistan who know various foreign languages, such as English, Chinese, Korean, Russian and Japanese. So, at a certain point in time, the idea arose to create conditions for volunteers who know foreign languages to share their experience and knowledge with children from low-income families and with disabilities, with those who, due to the prevailing life circumstances, do not have the opportunity and access for additional, advanced learning of foreign languages. It was decided to start with English, as it is the most in demand.

The volunteers organized the educational process in an interesting way: there was no uniformity and monotony in presenting students and further taking notes of educational information. On the contrary, the presence of an interactive part, game moments, exercises related to the English language, the development of visual and imaginative thinking, quizzes and thematic classes. This volunteer initiative began in 2023, it brought back our volunteer guys from the Jeyhun volunteering center in Ashgabat -Natalia Arazdurdieva, Aigul Bekieva, Umida Saidova, Maryam Adayeva, Ogulnyazik Khidyrova, they were replaced by Abdulla Mashaev, Jennet Emudova, Gulovser Berdyeva, Aylar Amanova, Guljahan Berdyniyazova.

It is worth noting that such a process of teaching English to children, on the principle of "peer-to-peer", is a great opportunity for volunteers to show their communication skills, practice communicating with children and, possibly, discover pedagogical skills. We hope that our initiatives will be spread in other NRCST regions, and there will be initiative, energetic volunteers who will lead English language clubs in their places.
