Tangerang, Muhammadiyah University of Tangerang- The English Club at Muhammadiyah University Tangerang is a student organization that plays a crucial role in shaping the university community over 2 terms. The primary mission of this club is to enhance English language skills, foster cross-cultural relationships, and provide a supportive community for English language enthusiasts. The club is inclusive and welcomes all students with a membership fee of 50,000 Indonesian Rupiah, along with requirements and interests related to the English language.

Club activities range from language workshops and conversation clubs to public speaking events. Members gain confidence in communication and establish lasting friendships with like-minded peers.

Collaboration is at the core of English Club activities, and the club often partners with other student groups and university departments for joint events and workshops. The club offers activities and workshops tailored to different skill levels, ensuring that all members can benefit from English Club activities.

A significant highlight of the club is the English Language Webinar held in each session, a distinctive event that showcases speaking skills and art skills. The club's impact is further evident through the success stories of its members, such as a student who improved their English language proficiency.

The club's vision is to continue expanding its activities, becoming a focal point for English language enthusiasts and fostering global relationships. It maintains an active presence on social media, a dedicated website, and regular email updates.
