Abstract

The Fun English at SDN 6 Tambak Ukir (FeaST) program was designed to enhance English vocabulary acquisition among elementary school students in 3T (underdeveloped, outermost, and frontier) areas. Implemented at SDN 6 Tambak Ukir, Situbondo, the program addressed the lack of English learning resources and specialized teachers by engaging university student tutors to facilitate interactive learning activities. The program was carried out in three phases: preparation, implementation, and evaluation. Activities included vocabulary games, reading exercises, and storytelling to encourage student participation. The results showed a significant improvement in students' English vocabulary and increased engagement in learning. Teachers also gained new teaching strategies to sustain the program beyond its initial implementation. However, challenges such as limited student attendance and varying language proficiency levels required adaptive teaching methods. The FeaST program demonstrates that structured intervention can enhance English language learning in remote schools. Further development and integration into the school curriculum are recommended to ensure long-term sustainability.

Abstract

In the context of vocational education, equipping students with both English proficiency and creative expression skills is essential for enhancing their employability and personal development. This community-based project, conducted at SMK Negeri 1 Situbondo, Indonesia, aimed to strengthen students’ foundational English skills and promote creative literacy through a dual-focus approach: communicative English training and guided literary writing. Utilizing Communicative Language Teaching (CLT), Project-Based Learning (PjBL), and experiential learning frameworks, the program provided students with practical speaking exercises and mentorship in producing English-language poems and short stories. These works were curated and published in a collaboratively designed school wall magazine. The findings reveal that interactive instruction and creative output fostered student engagement, confidence, and linguistic competence. Moreover, the program functioned as a catalyst for promoting school-based literacy culture. This study highlights the pedagogical value of integrating language instruction with creative production in vocational settings and advocates for scalable, context-sensitive community engagement models to support English learning in under-resourced schools.
