International Scholarship Education Expo

Welcome to ISEE’s (International Scholarship Education Expo) Blog

INTRODUCTION

“The central task of education is to implant a will and facility for learning; it should produce not learned but learning people. The truly human society is a learning society, where grandparents, parents, and children are students together.”

- Eric Hoffer -

Education is a fundamental aspect for a country’s development. Through qualified education, competence generation that required to build our country will be born. Every effort should be conducted to enhance our country’s educational quality. This is related to welfare improvement, and the arrival of competitive globalization era. Globalization era requires improvement on science and technology empowering, and foreign language (such as english) mastering.

Getting a proper and qualified education is everyone’s desire. But, there are so many people experiencing difficulties in accessing those qualified education, either due to financial reasons, lack of preparation, or even inability to obtain information. On the other hand, there are institutions both domestic and abroad, available provide scholarship, but the information couldn’t be reached by most those who need it.

To continue study abroad is everyone’s dream. One of the requirements to study abroad is English language mastering that can be measured by standard methods such as Test of English as Foreign Language (TOEFL) score. English language mastering is needed in the globalization era. For that reason cooperation between all stakeholders is needed to increase English proficiency on our daily life, especially for English teachers and Indonesian students.
