BRIDGE INTERNATIONAL COLLEGE
Languages & Tourism
Welcome to the Frontpage
Annual award ceremony
This is held on the last Friday of the school year and certificates and diplomas are awarded to students who have successfully completed their studies.
Culture lessons: At the end of each cycle there is a cultural lesson. The lesson will be in English for first year students and in Mongolian for students who understand Mongolian well. Cultural lessons may sometimes take place outside of the classroom: museums etc.
Practice partnerMongolian students learning English or Tourism Management are often willing and interested in getting to know foreign students. Some would be glad to exchange English speaking practice for Mongolian speaking or to simply show you around town. Contact the Dean of Foreign Students or the Dean of Mongolian Students.
General Class InformationSince you will be living in a different culture and your classmates are also likely to be from cultures different from your own, please remember to be considerate towards others. Responses to the stresses of learning a language, of classroom behavior, and of much more, vary not only from one person to another, but also from culture to culture.
Classroom and teacher: On the first day of the semester you will receive a schedule with the number of your classroom and the name, or initials, of your teacher. Your teacher will show you where the classroom is. If a class has more than four students, a conversation teacher will be there to help. Once a year you can choose a new teacher according to your will.
Schedule and teacher changes: If a student’s teacher or schedule is changed by the school during a semester, the student will be notified of this in advance.
End of cycle tests: Students on a regular cycle study schedule will have to take a test on the last Thursday of each cycle. Those scoring 75% or less in this will usually be expected to repeat the cycle. The day following a test is usually given to a review of the students’ performance at the test and there may also be an opportunity to participate in a Mongolian culture class taught in English. Temporary absence: If you are ill or unable to come to class for some reason, please inform your teacher directly or notify the Dean of Foreign Students or the Assistant to the Director. Classes thus missed may not be rescheduled, although arrangements for a tutor may be made at the standard tutoring fee.
