Portal helps 70,000 with SPM revision

Raja Singham says he wants to make the Internet accessible to students from rural areas.

More than 70,000 have signed up for SPMflix.com, Malaysia’s largest and most comprehensive free SPM education portal, where students can revise and learn through live-stream classes and even take quizzes to prepare for their examinations.

With over 8,700 free videos and constant updates, SPMflix.com also offers an annual SPM seminar which includes live online classes covering exam areas as well as tips and answering techniques in 12 subjects for both English and Malay mediums.

This seminar also includes soft skills sessions such as study skills, memory skills and mind-mapping to further enhance students’ performance in their exams.

Under the “Tanya Cikgu” tab on the SPMflix website, students can send their queries through WhatsApp, which will be answered by experienced teachers.

BAC Education Group remains committed to digitising and creating free content for all schoolchildren in the country to ensure no one is left behind when it comes to access to education.

BAC Education Group managing director Raja Singham said he wanted to help solve the issue of Internet accessibility among students from rural areas so they could also benefit from the portals.

“We want to focus on ensuring that students from the B40 and rural areas have adequate Internet coverage to access the vast learning resources available online, including SPMflix. Education is a means out of poverty.”

“We want to work with the federal and state governments to make this happen and we are prepared to fund it. We want to help educate every child in the country, ” he said.

Since its inception, SPMflix has seen more than 70,000 students studying for free on its platforms while about 2,000 teachers have attended curated workshops on blended learning and the use of technology in classrooms.

Raja said, “We need to do our best to ensure learning continues, children’s education is not disrupted and to eradicate digital poverty.

“The focus of the government and telcos should be to overcome the digital divide between urban and rural areas of the country.

“We must ensure schoolchildren can access portals like SPMflix.com so that their education is never interrupted and that all Malaysians have equitable access to education, ” he added.
