Hak untuk mengenyam pendidikan bagi semua warga negara Indonesia nyatanya belum bisa dinikmati oleh semua anak-anak Pekerja Migran Indonesia (PMI) yang ada di Malaysia. Selain Sekolah Indonesia Kuala Lumpur (SKIL), di wilayah Kuala Lumpur dan sekitarnya telah berdiri beberapa Sanggar Bimbingan. Sanggar Bimbingan Kampung Bharu adalah salah satu Sanggar Bimbingan di bawah naungan Pimpinan Cabang Istimewa Muhammadiyah (PCIM) Malaysia. Pada tahun ajaran 2021/2022 tercatat 51 siswa usia sekolah dasar dari kelas 1 sampai 6 yang belajar di SB Kampung Bharu. Menurut hasil wawancara dan observasi, salah satu permasalahan yang dihadapi adalah kurangnya penguasaan bahasa Inggris oleh siswa. Padahal di Malaysia, bahasa Inggris berstatus sebagai bahasa kedua dan lazim digunakan di wilayah perkotaan. Oleh karena itu, kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat bertajuk “Fun Easy English” ini dilaksanakan dengan tujuan untuk meningkatkan kemampuan dan motivasi belajar bahasa Inggris siswa SB Kampung Bharu khususnya siswa kelas rendah (kelas 1-3). Kegiatan PkM ini diadakan pada hari Senin, 29 Agustus 2022, dan Kamis, 1 September 2022 menggunakan media lagu dan metode Total Physical Response. Hasil evaluasi pada pertemuan pertama menyebutkan bahwa 84% siswa mampu memperkenalkan diri dalam bahasa Inggris dengan benar dan lancar sedangkan pada pertemuan kedua 100% siswa mampu mengerjakan lembar kerja dengan nilai di atas 70. Secara keseluruhan, kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini berjalan dengan sukses dan lancar. Diharapkan kegiatan semacam ini dapat dilaksanakan dan dilanjutkan oleh pengelola SB maupun dari tim pengabdian masyarakat lainnya.
English Training for Indonesian Migrant Workers’ Children in Malaysia through “Fun Easy English”
The right to education for all Indonesian citizens has not reached all the children of Indonesian Migrant Workers (PMI) in Malaysia. In addition to the Kuala Lumpur Indonesian School (SKIL), several learning centers called Sanggar Bimbingan (SB) have been established in Kuala Lumpur and its surroundings. Kampung Bharu learning center is one of the learning centers under the auspices of the Muhammadiyah Special Branch Manager (PCIM) of Malaysia. In the 2021/2022 academic year, 51 elementary school-aged students (grades 1 to 6) were enrolled at SB Kampung Bharu. According to the results of interviews and observations, one of the problems faced was the lack of mastery of English by the students, whereas in Malaysia, English is a second language and is commonly used in urban areas. Therefore, the community service entitled “Fun Easy English” was carried out to increase the ability and motivation of the students to learn English, especially low grade students (grades 1-3). This activity was held on Monday, 29 August 2022, and Thursday, 1 September 2022 using song media and the Total Physical Response method. At the first meeting, 84% of students were able to introduce themselves in English correctly and fluently while at the second meeting 100% of students were able to work on worksheets with scores above 70. Overall, this community service activity ran successfully and smoothly. It is hoped that this kind of activity can be carried out and continued by SB managers and other community service teams
