In 2012, President Barack Obama would become the first sitting President of the United States to visit the country of Myanmar. Not long after his visit, in February 2013, the Peace Corps would be invited by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to establish an English Education volunteer program that works closely with the Ministry of Education. Myanmar officially became the 141st country to host a Peace Corps program. In 2017, the first group of two-year Peace Corps volunteers were sworn in to begin teaching English alongside public middle school and high school teachers, collaborating to help shape the young minds of Myanmar.
