Abstract

This study seeks to explore the pronunciation difficulties encountered by students at Tessaban 2 Ban Sadao School in Thailand. Utilizing qualitative research methodologies, which include pronunciation evaluations and semi-structured interviews with educators, the research aims to identify prevalent pronunciation mistakes and analyze the instructional strategies employed by teachers. The results indicate that students face challenges with particular phonemes, such as /r/, /v/, /ʃ/, and final consonant clusters, primarily influenced by their first language (L1). Furthermore, issues related to incorrect word stress and unsuitable intonation patterns impede clarity and understanding in spoken communication. Educators implement a variety of techniques, such as phonetic training, minimal pair exercises, and imitation practices, to help students enhance their pronunciation skills. Nevertheless, the limited exposure to authentic English language contexts continues to pose a significant obstacle. This research highlights the critical need for a stronger focus on pronunciation within the English language curriculum, as well as the importance of providing students with increased opportunities to interact with genuine English-speaking environments. By tackling these challenges, educators can formulate more effective and targeted teaching strategies, ultimately improving the pronunciation and communication abilities of EFL (English as a Foreign Language) learners in Thailand.

Abstract

This study investigates the implementation of the Kurikulum Merdeka to improve students' foreign language proficiency and examines the challenges faced by language teachers in its application within Acehnese schools. The selected schools represent diverse geographical contexts, including urban, suburban, and boarding schools, allowing for a comparative analysis of implementation strategies. In-depth, semi-structured interviews with ten foreign language teachers (English and Arabic), school principals, and staff provided qualitative data, supplemented by field notes, class discussion transcriptions, and textbook reviews. Findings show disparities in curriculum implementation by school type and location, with challenges including limited resources, insufficient training, and complexity, especially in under-resourced schools. However, the curriculum's student-centered, goal-oriented approach is seen as transformative for language classrooms. This study contributes to the literature on curriculum implementation and language education as well as providing insights for educational policymakers. It also provides practical recommendations for improving the integration of the Kurikulum Merdeka in Acehnese schools and ensuring its successful adoption in language education.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the factors that lead to students' difficulties in learning to speak English at Watnamom School and to identify the types of challenges they face in improving their speaking skills. A mixed-method approach was used, combining quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews with students and teachers. The findings reveal that students struggle with confidence issues, fear of making mistakes, and a lack of exposure to English-speaking environments. Additionally, linguistic barriers, such as vocabulary limitations and pronunciation difficulties, further hinder their progress. Instructional challenges, including teacher-centered methods and limited speaking practice, also contribute to their struggles. Environmental factors, such as minimal opportunities to practice English outside the classroom, further exacerbate the issue. These results suggest that a more interactive and supportive learning environment, incorporating group discussions, role-plays, and real-world speaking opportunities, is essential to help students develop their English-speaking skills. Addressing these challenges can enhance students' confidence and fluency, preparing them for both academic and professional success.
