A teacher from Sabah, Loren Fren, has gone viral on social media after a video of her teaching Jawi script caught the attention of many.
Loren, a teacher serving at Sekolah Kebangsaan Bawang K9, Beluran, Sabah, showcased an impressive ability to write Jawi script with great precision.
The video, which has garnered over 1 million views on Facebook, shows Loren teaching the Malay proverb “Bagai aur dengan tebing” (Like the bamboo and the riverbank) in Jawi on a whiteboard.
Many netizens were impressed by Loren’s beautiful handwriting and her skills in teaching a subject he rarely covers.
In a statement, Loren shared, “I rarely teach Jawi, so I made this video as a keepsake. Once we’re done with Jawi this year, we’ll continue next year.”
The video also caught the attention of the Minister of Education, Dr. Maszlee Malik, who expressed his gratitude and congratulated Loren through a Facebook post. He praised Loren’s efforts in showing respect and love for Malaysian culture.
“You have taught us the meaning of love, happiness, and mutual respect,” wrote Dr. Maszlee, commending the teacher for fostering unity through education.
