Project Background:

Based on the National Education Blueprint 2013-2025, only 3 out of every 10 secondary students achieved a minimum credit in the SPM English Paper. Apart from that, 38% of Malaysian students failed to meet the minimum benchmarks in mathematics and science; most students were shown to understand basic concepts but struggled to apply the knowledge. In accordance with SDG 4: Quality Education, we strive to empower students in Malaysia to develop their English and STEM skills. This is done by conducting workshops on STEM subjects in English, and other activities which provide an avenue for students to practice public speaking in English.
