    Hello,
    My name is Akbar. I am a musician, writer, journalist, and activist, so ya, hopefully i can considered myself as a open minded person and very welcoming for everybody.
    Am i? Join us and figure it out then :) .
    I graduated from English literature faculty and also have at least 10 years experience of being a tour guide.
    Actually, these are the reason that’s why I opened an private English conversational class. Because i found that there are still lots of West Sumatra people are having trouble in speaking English.

    People in the surrounding villages only get a poor English language education throughout their schooling years.
    At all ages, there is demand from the local population to have better English skills in order to open opportunities for them in the future.
    If you feel like you can help, we are in contact with many enthusiastic High-Schools and University students who would like to improve their public speaking skills.
    The classes are given either in the outdoor cottages or in the village gathering spot.
    We can discuss the detailed schedule of classes when you contact me and we go further in planning your stay with us!

    Essentially, my aim is to give the local population an ongoing and sustained contact with English-speakers to empower them in their future lives.
    Especially as West-Sumatra is gradually opening up to tourism and since proficiency in English became almost indispensable for whoever aspires to higher social opportunities,
    and professional positions.

    Note:
    1. If you are not a native speaker but you have experiences of teaching English or are confident that you can teach, you are still very welcome. We offer guidance on what to teach and how to teach it.
    2. If you are not a native speaker and you have less experiences of teaching English or are confident that you can teach, please do not be worried,
    the point is you can speak English and have an enthusiasm to sit, discuss, and sharing your experience with the students, as i mentioned above is about (conversational).

    How to get here
    if you use airplane to come here, you should fly to Minangkabau International Airport, Padang, West Sumatra.
    After that, you just directly contacted me for the detail to get to Sawahlunto. Another option is that I will pick you up at the airport if I have free time.
    You can directly find my place in Padang located in "Azura game house" Padang if you are staying around the city.

    This is a very outstanding place where you can be sure your help will be warmly welcomed by everybody here!

    Looking forward to reading from you! Let's help empower the local community together!

    You will not asking for more after you met me :), the combination of a knowledge and fun from a chill out musician dude, academic and journalist, everything will be awesome :) Hopefully.
