Why Choose Penang, Malaysia?

Penang: the ‘Pearl of the Orient’, needs little introduction to many visitors to Malaysia, having long been known as one of Southeast Asia's finest destinations. Penang's outstanding beaches, exotic sights, diving, angling and wonderful food have made it one of the most popular destinations in the region.

As fabulous as its beaches are, other worthwhile stops are the delightful Penang Bird Park, the peak of Penang Hill, Fort Cornwallis, the site of Light's first landing, and the Pantai Acheh Forest Reserve, crisscrossed with beautiful trails leading to isolated beaches. A trek through the reserve's interior reveals rare flora, monkeys chattering in the trees, sea eagles surveying their prey, and maybe a glimpse of a Hawksbill turtle heading for the sea. 

Dynamic Language Centre welcomes international students to Penang Island to study our various intensive language programmes. Penang Island is a great place to study English, Malay or Chinese because all three languages are used extensively in the community. Furthermore as a tourist island, you will find sub-communities of other languages spoken and perhaps be pleasantly surprised to find others who would speak your own language too.

Some of the countries represented by our international students include Canada, China, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Libya, Mexico, Nepal, Iraq, Yemen, the Netherlands, Oman, the Philippines, Slovakia, Taiwan, Thailand, the United Kingdom, and the United States of America.
