The Tajik authorities are taking measures to provide local Russian-language schools with enough number of teachers.
The Ministry of education and Science of Russia’s Republic of Daghestan has made public a document that was issued on June 30, 2017. The document, in particular, notes that groups of teachers wanting to work in Tajikistan are being formed.
Daghestan Post reports the lists of teachers wishing to work in Tajikistan should be prepared by July 5.
Russian-language schools in Tajikistan are reportedly experiencing shortages of teachers of the Russian language, chemistry, physics, biology, mathematics and informatics and Tajikistan needs teachers of the mentioned disciplines with experience of work not less than five years.
Russian teachers are planned to work in Tajikistan for a year with the possibility to extend their contracts.
The Tajik side will provide the teachers with dwelling and paid their travel expenses. The wages will be equal to average wages of local teachers – 14,000 Russian rubles. Besides, the Russian Ministry of education and Science will pay in addition 60,000 Russian rubles to each of them.
Recall, Tajik President Emomali Rahmon on May 10 received visiting Head of Russia’s Republic of Daghestan, Ramazan Abdulatipov.
Rahmon highly appraised the role of Ramazan Abdulatipov, who served as Russian Ambassador to Tajikistan from May 23, 2005 to March 6, 2009, in expansion of bilateral cooperation between Tajikistan and the Russian Federation.
According to the Tajik president’s official website, Rahmon noted that Abdulatipov’s visit was a stimulator for expansion of good ties between the two countries “in new time and in new spheres.”
Rahmon outlined sectors like agriculture, energy, transportation and minerals as areas, which could drive a two-way trade between Tajikistan and the Republic of Daghestan.
Rahmon and Abdulatipov also discussed cooperation in the fields of tourism, culture and education. A special attention was reportedly given to issues related to exchange of teachers of the Russian language and access to educational materials.
After a meeting with President Rahmon, Ramazan Abdulatipov told reporters that he had proposed to send a group of Tajik economists to Daghestan to study the opportunities of establishment of economic cooperation between Tajikistan and Daghestan.
