MI SAFINDA continues to support students in developing their English language skills through an engaging and interactive learning program called ECP (English Class Program). This program provides students with a valuable opportunity to practice English directly with a native speaker in a fun, practical, and supportive learning environment.

On Saturday, October 17, 2026, MI SAFINDA welcomed Miss Cinthya Pawelzick from USA as a special guest star and native speaker in the ECP Talk in Action program. The event was part of the school's quarterly English learning initiative, designed to encourage students to use English confidently in real-life communication.

At MI SAFINDA, learning English is not only about memorizing vocabulary and understanding grammar. It is also about developing the confidence to speak, listen, and communicate effectively.

Through ECP Talk In Action, students have the opportunity to interact directly with a native speaker, practice everyday conversations, and experience English in a more natural context. This interactive approach helps students become more familiar with spoken English while making the learning process enjoyable and meaningful.

One of the highlights of the program was the participation of 25 students from Grade 2B, who enthusiastically joined the English lesson on Chapter 4: “Let’s Play.” Throughout the session, the students showed great excitement, actively participated in the learning activities, and demonstrated their eagerness to practice English with Miss Cinthya.

Miss Cinthya was delighted to see the students' enthusiasm and active participation throughout the lesson. She shared her appreciation for their positive attitude and willingness to learn English. “I think ECP is amazing! Students have more opportunities to practice English, build confidence, and communicate naturally. They don’t just learn English from books; they use it in real conversations!”

The joyful interaction created a positive learning atmosphere where students could explore English, practice communication, and build confidence without being afraid of making mistakes. This experience showed that learning English can be both educational and enjoyable when students are given opportunities to use the language in real communication.

ECP Talk In Action is organized as a quarterly program, giving students the opportunity to participate in special English learning sessions every three months. This regular program reflects MI SAFINDA's commitment to providing meaningful learning experiences beyond the traditional classroom. Each session is designed to help students improve their communication skills through practical activities and direct engagement.

The program also aims to create a positive atmosphere where students feel comfortable making mistakes, learning from them, and continuing to practice English without fear.

These experiences help students understand that English is not simply a school subject but also an important tool for connecting with people and exploring new opportunities. With the spirit of “Speak English, Be Confident!”, MI SAFINDA hopes that ECP Talk In Action will inspire students to become more enthusiastic about learning English and more confident in using it in their daily lives.

Through collaboration, interactive learning, and continuous practice, MI SAFINDA is committed to nurturing students who are confident communicators, active learners, and well-prepared for the future.
