Education plays an important role in the context of human life, especially the Orang Asli. The issues of dropping out of education, school attendance, transition to secondary school and illiteracy among the Orang Asli, especially the Semoq Beri tribe, are of great concern. The main factor that affects these issues is the practical tradition of the Semoq Beri tribe who still practice a nomadic life or move from one area to another to imitate the National School of daily life. Accordingly, teaching methods have been implemented to help the community to reduce the formal education gap as well as reduce the percentage of illiteracy among the Semoq Beri community. The 'Naturegogy' approach, didik hibur, jungle school, pedagogical methods and annual school programs have been developed to create interest in education, especially the basic concept of 3M (Reading, Writing and Counting) among the Semoq Beri tribe. Through this method, the community can learn the basics of 3M and the basics of the school syllabus to further increase their awareness and interest in learning. This teaching method approach is used to create a cheerful atmosphere in the ecosystem of forest life. This method is able to attract the interest of the Semoq Beri community to receive formal education.
