Persaingan Skill Bahasa Inggris di Level ASEAN, Indonesia Andalkan Apa? | RUANG BK

Share your appreciation here: https://apresiasi.kompas.com/special The quality of Indonesia's English language education system currently faces significant challenges, as the majority of our English teachers still possess basic proficiency. Meanwhile, Indonesia has the lowest number of English instruction hours in the ASEAN region. This contrasts sharply with Vietnam, which has consistently improved the quality of its teachers since 2008 to meet international standards. In today's international workplace, English is the official language of communication, yet many talented Indonesians face career obstacles due to communication barriers. Itje Chodidjah (English Language Teaching Expert & Master Trainer, British Council) and Buyung Sudrajat (Head of English and School Education East Asia, British Council) explain why English is now the primary "ticket" for young people to compete in the global job market. How can we improve the quality of English language teaching and prepare a generation ready to compete internationally?
