WHERE CAN I FIND A TUTOR IN THE MONGOLIAN LANGUAGE WHO LIVES IN SONOMA
COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, OR SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA, OR BERKELEY,
CALIFORNIA?

Dear Cocoa, 

After comprehensive research, let me first disappoint you by saying
that no language school or university in the region teach the
language. However, I've found a couple of other possibilities.

I've found four people from the Bay Area willing to teach Mongolian in
exchage for English (or other languages) at Language Exchange:
Learn Mongolian in the United States
<http://www.mylanguageexchange.com/Search.asp?selX3=105&selX6=null&selCountry=United+States&selAge=&submit1=Search&Cnt=1>

You have to be a registered member in order to see these people's
details and to contact them.

The San Francisco Mongolian Meetup Group is another source for people
who seek to practice or learn the Mongolian language in the Bay Area,
and for Mongolian speakers to meet (which means that an email to the
head of this group might yield good results)

The American Center For Mongolian Studies has a listing of member
academic institutions. However, surprisingly, none of them are in
California!

I hope this answers your question. I really apologise for not having
found any other tutors. Please contact me if you need any
clarification on this answer before you rate it.

Hello cocoa-ga,

I think this is a tough assignment. Here are a couple of links to help
you with tracking down people in the Bay Area Mongolian Community who
might be able to help you. Good luck.

It's no mystery why the largest American museum devoted to Asian art
should be located in a city where some 40% of the population is of
Asian descent, chiefly Chinese and Philippine, but including Indian,
Pakistani, Lao, Vietnamese and Korean too. "We also know all of the 30
Mongolians in the Bay Area personally," says Emily Sano, the museum's
director.
