Abstract

This study investigates students’ speaking anxiety in drama-based speaking tasks in an English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classroom, focusing on its multidimensional manifestations and impact on performance. Using a convergent parallel mixed-methods design, data were collected from eleventh-grade students through questionnaires, classroom observations, and semi-structured interviews. The findings reveal that speaking anxiety manifests across emotional, cognitive, physical, and behavioral dimensions, with cognitive anxiety being the most dominant. Students frequently experienced memory lapses, loss of concentration, and reduced fluency during performance. In addition, anxiety persisted after the performance, particularly during video reflection. These findings indicate that while drama activities can enhance engagement, they may also intensify performance-related anxiety. Therefore, it is important for teachers to implement supportive strategies that address both cognitive and emotional aspects of anxiety to improve students’ speaking performance.

Abstract

This study examines the adaptive teaching strategies employed by Indonesian pre-service English teachers when teaching English in Thai schools in Krabi, Thailand. Teaching in a multicultural and multilingual EFL context requires teachers to be flexible and responsive to students’ linguistic abilities, cultural backgrounds, and learning needs. This research focuses on how pre-service teachers adapt their instructional strategies, address cultural and pedagogical challenges, and develop professional competence during their teaching internships. This study employed a qualitative multiple-case study design involving ten Indonesian pre-service English teachers from a private university in East Jakarta who joined KKN & Magang Internasional in Krabi, Thailand. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, classroom observations, and documentation, and analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings indicate that the participants demonstrated readiness to adapt their teaching methods, utilize various instructional media and materials, and integrate cultural awareness into their teaching classroom practices. These adaptive strategies in response to students’ needs, classroom environment, and language proficiency levels, contributed to improved student engagement and the development of intercultural competencelearning effectiveness.
