Hi parents, did you know that your kids can now attend English classes at the British Council online? With existing infrastructure and materials to conduct online lessons, British Council was quick to put together online classes for their students during the MCO.
Now that the RMCO (Recovery Movement Control Order) has been extended to 31st December 2020 and life has gone back to a new normal with some students returning to their regular classes, the good news is you can still opt for online classes if you prefer. This is also good news for students in other states for example Johor, Melaka, Sabah etc. Now you have the opportunity to attend British Council Malaysia English classes from anywhere in Malaysia!
