Almash Zakirova, a graduate of the Higher School of International Educational Programs and the presenter of the university's social media pages, did win the top honor at the festival in Bishkek that was put on with cooperation from the Hoseo University of South Korea.
Almash Zakirova was awarded a scholarship worth $2400 for a six-month study period at Hoseo University.
“I had a dream of going to Korea to study, so I took extra classes to prepare. After graduating from college this year, I intended to enroll in Hoseo University’s 6-month language program. The only issue was the cost of tuition. But now the problem has been solved, I have been awarded a grant for education. After finishing the classes, I’ll continue my study in the master’s program so that I can advance as a professional and help my country in the future” said Almash Zakirova.
