Labour of love: A native speaker teaching the pupils under his care.

WHEN the Teaching and Learning of Science and Mathematics in English (PPSMI) policy ended in 2009, the Government reverted to using Bahasa Malaysia for those in national schools and the respective mother tongue for vernacular schools, leaving a vacuum in the teaching and learning of English, SMR Group ELT project manager Michael Hughes observes.

SMR Group CEO (Corporate Office) Syed Muzakir Al-Jofre hopes that the Government will continue The Native Speaker Programme (Penutur Jati) and the Professional Upskilling of English Language Teachers (Pro-ELT) Programme.
