Limkokwing University concluded a three-week English Language summer camp for 15 South Korean students on 15 July in Cyberjaya.
The language programme enabled students from Inha University to develop their English proficiency through the University’s multicultural learning environment and international student network.
“Limkokwing University has students from across the globe and they come from different culture and background,” said Senior Lecturer Lucy Newton from the Faculty of Communication, Media and Broadcasting. “They have one thing in common and they all communicate in English.”
She also added that English is a global language in businesses across the world and as a medium for instruction. This enables learners to embrace the language to become better communicators.
Students from South Korea gained a unique advantage under Limkokwing’s distinctive learning approach. The programme enabled them to experience multiculturalism through exposure and networking with students from 107 countries. This enables students to express their ideas to compete in a globalised environment.
“English is easier for Koreans to learn here at Limkokwing,” said South Korean Material Engineering student Sung Chang Oh after completing the programme.
The opportunity to learn English at Limkokwing University in Malaysia gave him a chance to meet people from other countries. He added that lecturers at the University were friendly and classes with international students made the experience more enjoyable.
“I really like being able to study English while meeting new people,” said Food nutrition student Sharon Zou Yu Ting. She added that the experience at University allowed her to strengthen her English proficiency through interaction with students from different countries.
