English Club TV has entered into a partnership with Sri Lanka Telecom PLC. (SLT), the National ICT solutions provider in Sri Lanka. Now, the worldwide educational channel English Club TV is available on the provider’s platform SLT PEO TV to help and inspire its subscribers as they learn English. English Club TV will be available on the PEO Titanium, PEO Platinum, PEO Gold and Staff packages.

 

Andrew Semchenko, CEO of the English Club TV Group, commented on the launch:

 

“English is widely used as a second language by most locals in Sri Lanka, and there is a growing need to enhance proficiency among speakers of all age groups. According to national language research, most students agree that the main drawbacks they face while learning English are the lack of professional teaching resources and the absence of a native-speaking environment. We believe our new partnership will bring Sri Lankans an effective new tool for learning English without leaving their home, saving time and money. All you need to do is turn on your TV and start enjoying our educational programmes – programmes which are grouped by levels and coupled with entertaining TV shows for the best learning experience. English Club TV is a unique tool from the very heart of London that helps viewers master Standard British English!”

 

Ajantha Senevirathne, Group Chief Marketing Officer at SLT and CEO at SLT PEO TV, said:

 

“Our recent tie-up with English Club TV is an obvious enrichment of content for our young PEO TV audience who invest time and money to enrich their comprehension in the English language. I’m sure English Club TV will generate a larger audience very soon with its attractive modes of teaching English, the British Way.”
