Abstract

This study aimed to explore the lecturer’s teaching strategies in the speaking class at Universitas Palangka Raya. This study used a qualitative research design. The participant in this study was one of the lecturers who taught in the Intermediate English-Speaking Class during the 2nd semester. The instruments used were a field note and an interview guide. The study found that the lecturer employed various strategies to teach speaking skills, depending on the topic of the day. The lecturer employed seven strategies throughout the class activity. In the opening, the lecturer would use icebreakers as a warm-up. In the core activity, the lecturer would employ techniques such as brainstorming, drilling, pair work, role-playing, and group work. At the end of the class, the lecturer would play a game named “Exit Ticket”. This study is recommended for lecturers or teachers as a reference for teaching speaking skills.

Abstract

English-speaking fluency is a critical competence for academic, professional, and interpersonal success, yet many learners encounter persistent linguistic, affective, and social barriers. This study employed a qualitative narrative inquiry to examine the learning strategies and habits formation of a highly proficient Indonesian EFL learner, selected through purposive sampling based on her achievements in debate and public speaking. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed using Miles et al.’s (2014) iterative model. The findings revealed four deliberate strategies, self-talk, overcoming fear of mistakes, social interaction, and self-monitoring, that collectively enhanced confidence, resilience, and sustained oral practice. In parallel, two major dimensions of habits formation, early exposure to English through parental support and media input, and integration of English into daily life across school, professional, and familial contexts. emerged as decisive in sustaining fluency development. Unlike prior studies that emphasize group-level outcomes, this research provides a nuanced account of an individual learner’s trajectory, demonstrating how strategies and habits formation converge to embed fluency as a lifelong practice. The study contributes to the field by enriching limited research on highly proficient Indonesian EFL learners and offering pedagogical insights into how deliberate strategy use and consistent routines can be cultivated to foster enduring fluency growth.
