Khurshedsho Qonunov is an Assistant Professor at New Generation Academy at the American University of Central Asia. He completed a one-year program for teaching English as a Foreign Language at the Department of Language Education of the University of British Columbia (1998, Canada) and a course in Education Management from Birkbeck College of the University of London (2007, UK). During the 14 years between 2000 and 2014, Khurshedsho worked for the London-based Institute of Ismaili Studies, managing and teaching at its Khorog English and Preparatory Programme. The program prepared Central Asian students for Master level studies in the United Kingdom.
