Our University

This year we are teaching in the English Education department at Mongolian International University (MIU). We really enjoy teaching at MIU.  We have great students and it is an atmosphere that is enjoyable to work in.  The following are some pictures that we took after the first snow.  These pictures were taken before they repainted the fronts of two of the buildings.    Joshua and Jennifer are standing in front of the D building.  This building has the library, cafeteria (in the basement), administrative offices and classrooms.  Many events are held in the Main Hall in this building as well.

The scaffolding is in place for repairs.

In the distance is a hotel that as faculty we can get a discount at if we stay there.

 

The brick building with the soccer goal in front of it is the T (Thanksgiving) building.  This building has classrooms designed for the fashion design department.  There is also a book cafe that is quite cozy.  The high school (MIS) also meets in this building.

 This is the M (Main) building.  This is the building where we have our office and all of our classes.  Jennifer is heading in to start the day.  In the basement to this building is a bakery where they train people how to bake breads and other goodies.  The baked goodies fill the halls with a pleasant aroma!  Our next post will be to catch you up on some of the events and outings we have had with some of our students.
