Recently, Mentakab Mentors Martina Gilmartin and Jimmy Ma were invited to present some of their research in Penang at iELT - Con 2015. This was an English Language event sponsored by PELLTA: Penang English Language Learning and Teaching Association. This conference had a lot of teachers attending and presenting new methods and research related to teaching ESL.

Both mentors were very happy that their presentation proposals were accepted as presentations in the conference. This conference was very helpful at teaching our mentors new methods to try with their mentees and students.

Martina presented her research into Multi-Modality and Jimmy presented his research into Improving Students' Performance.
