LEADERSHIP AND ENGLISH LANGUAGE CAMP (LELaC)
7 – 10th December 2017
Universiti Sains Malaysia

The first Leadership and English Language Camp (LELaC) was held in 2010 in Universiti Sains Malaysia. About 120 learners all over Malaysia attended the camp over the course of 3 days and 2 nights. The camp was planned and conducted by Professor Dr. Muhammad Kamarul Kabilan Abdullah together with his 6 TESOL students. This English Language-based programme started off with the aim to create a fund to partly sponsor the student’s international teaching practicum in Maldives.

Since then, LELaC has grown into a well known and sought after English Language-based programme within Malaysia and other countries that has the main purpose in helping the learners to learn and to discover their English talents in a fun, challenging and enjoyable approach.

Through LELaC, the learners can discover their English talents by involving themselves with various activities that will challenge the learners both physically and mentally. As for the activities, the participants of this camp will experience the activities in a summer camp vibe. The activities will be conducted in both indoor and outdoor.

To participate, kindly contact:
