This study aims to explain teachers' perspectives on differentiated instruction and its implementation in English language teaching. The research employed a descriptive qualitative approach with purposive sampling, involving three English teachers from MTs N Ma’rang, Pangkep (two civil servant teachers and one non-civil servant teacher). Data were collected through interviews and observations and analyzed in four stages: data collection, condensation, display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that the teachers understand differentiated instruction as a model that adapts materials to students' characteristics. They recognize the importance of aligning instruction with students' profiles, both physiologically and psychologically. For its implementation, the three teachers focused on three key elements: content, process, and product, which were adjusted from the initial to the final phases of learning. Materials were designed based on students' levels of knowledge, understanding, and learning styles identified through diagnostic evaluations and direct observations. In conclusion, the application of differentiated instruction enables teachers to meet students' needs more effectively, thereby supporting the process of learning English as a foreign language. This approach provides a relevant and meaningful learning experience for students with diverse individual characteristics.

This pre-experimental study explores the effectiveness of integrating modified English songs in enhancing vocabulary retention among seventh-grade EFL learners in Indonesia. The research was conducted with 25 students at SMPN 3 Minasatene using a one-group pre-test–post-test design. The intervention consisted of five instructional sessions incorporating songs whose lyrics were deliberately adapted to match thematic vocabulary categories (objects, body parts, shapes, and vegetables). Each session combined listening, singing, contextual vocabulary practice, and short individual performances to reinforce lexical recall. Quantitative results revealed a significant improvement in learners’ vocabulary mastery, with the mean pre-test score (M = 69.64, SD = 5.95) increasing to the post-test mean (M = 89.12, SD = 6.31). The normalized gain (<g> = 0.64) indicates a high level of effectiveness based on Hake’s criteria. Qualitative observations further suggest that using modified songs enhanced learner motivation, enjoyment, and confidence in using English vocabulary. The findings demonstrate that purposeful integration of contextualized and culturally relevant songs can serve as an engaging medium for vocabulary development in early secondary EFL contexts. Pedagogical implications and recommendations for future experimental research designs are also discussed.
