FESTCO

(Fun English with SECO)

SCOPE MMSA UMY

Fun English with SECO (FESTCO) is a project or work program conducted by the Student Exchange Committee (SECO) of Muhammadiyah Medical Students' Activities (MMSA) UMY, which aims to improve English literacy in early childhood, especially at the level of Elementary School.  The main target of organizing FESTCO is Elementary School 3rd Grade Students from Muhammadiyah Banyuraden Elementary School.  This year, FESTCO was held virtually through the Zoom platform every Tuesday during February, February 2, 9, 16, and 23, 2021. The average number of participants who attended FETSCO was 20 students.

Students received two significant subjects: "Fruits and Vegetables" and "Part of our Body."  In implementing this event, the committee provides modules to assist learning. The implementation of this FESTCO was carried out by dividing the participants into several small groups accompanied by SECO members' mentors.  This method makes students more focused and active in learning focused. Besides, several games are the mentors, making the learning atmosphere more attractive. In the fourth intervention, a final exam was carried out to evaluate the students' learning. Alhamdulillah, the students were able to receive the material that we conveyed well.  So, we hope that students can get new knowledge, and able to learn English happily.
