🌏 KOMAD Connect: Connecting Classrooms, Cultures and Communication 🇲🇾🇯🇵
On 22 July 2026, 24 students from TESL A, PISMP TESL 2025–2030 had the opportunity to connect virtually with 14 freshmen from Dokkyo University, Japan, as part of KOMAD Connect—an extension programme of KOMAD.
The engagement provided an exciting platform for our students to enhance their English communication skills while discovering and appreciating each other’s cultures. Through a series of interactive online activities, students introduced themselves, shared experiences, explored cultural similarities and differences, and engaged in meaningful conversations—all while using English as the medium of communication.
Beyond the live interactions, students also responded to activities through Padlet and exchanged social media platforms such as Instagram, allowing them to continue their connections beyond the session.
More than just an online engagement, KOMAD Connect is about creating meaningful connections across borders, building confidence in communication, and encouraging our future educators to see English as a bridge between people and cultures. 🌏✨
A meaningful step towards a more connected and culturally aware learning community. 🇲🇾🤝🇯🇵
