Introduction on Marjon 1B. Ed. (TESL) in Kota Bharu Teacher’s Training Institute (KBTI) is a twinning programme with University College of St. Mark & St. John (Marjon), Plymouth, UK. Essentially, the programme aims to conduct practice to theoretical and research insight in English language. Typically, most of us will follow the programme through three stages which are the foundations, degrees and practicum. So, as the 1st Cohort of this programme, we are the pioneer of the third cycle and it is very important for us to set a benchmark in academics and co-academics. In KBTI itself, we are known as Marjon 1. The number 1 indicates our cohort. Furthermore, we are welcoming a wide range of backgrounds and experiences. All of us come from different states with different ideas, perspectives and hopes. The Marjon 1 consists of 24 students from all over Malaysia except Perlis, Melaka, Sabah and Sarawak. In addition, there are 20 Malays, 2 Chinese and 2 Indians in our group. However, it does not matter on how different we are, what matters most is that all of us come with one aim which is to further our studies in Marjon. Besides, this multi-racial class is very unique and special in every aspect. We are determined to have equal opportunities, believing that everyone has the right to fulfill the potential irrespective of ethnicity, gender or socio-cultural groups. Thus, all of us are working as a single unit so that we will have the chance to fulfill our dreams in Marjon.
