It has been for years that Indonesian education institutions rely on foreign language tests to assess students for their admission and graduation requirements. One of the instruments used is Test of English Proficiency (TEP) due to its validity, reliability, objectivity, and its unbiased characteristics to measure students’ ability in English competence.

The complexity of transferring language might mislead students as translators to mistranslate texts due to errors. Errors can be in the form of a message (meaning) or language, which also consists of grammar and lexicon. Transferring language also needs consideration of equivalent language transfer from the source language (SL) to the target language (TL). The present research identifies the error types, the source of errors, and the types of idiomatic translation that were done by English Department students of University of Islam Malang. The subjects of the research were 77 of the fifth semester students who took Translation course. The core data of this research were the students' translation works from English to bahasa Indonesia and unstructured interviews. This study employed a descriptive qualitative design. The data of the research were obtained from the result of the students' translation during the course. The data obtained also showed that more students commit errors on language than errors on message. The errors of language exist in the form of lexical aspect; they are conjunction, verb, and noun. In addition, the source of errors tends to happen because of the interlingual factors than the intralingual factors. The idiomatic transfer from the source language to the target language was done by shifting the meaning of idiom, instead of through word to word translation.

Abstract

This study explores how Indonesian pre-service teachers specializing in teaching non-English subjects adapt their instructional strategies in Thai classrooms, addressing challenges related to cultural and linguistic diversity. Using a qualitative case study design, data were collected through semi-structured interviews with two participants who taught mathematics and Indonesian language using English in Thai schools. The findings highlight the significance of cultural sensitivity, bilingual sources between Thai and English, and engaging instructional methods, such as visual aids, games, and songs, in overcoming communication barriers and fostering student engagement. Participants noted the critical role of simplifying language, reflective practices, and professional development in navigating cross-cultural teaching environments. Challenges included limited access to technology, language barriers, and managing classroom dynamics during transitional periods. The study underscores the need for language preparation and culturally responsive teaching strategies to ensure effective pedagogy in multicultural settings. While the small sample size limits generalizability, this research contributes valuable insights into the adaptation processes of pre-service teachers, advocating for enhanced training programs for international teaching practicums.
