Abstract

For non-native English speakers, phonological errors posed a serious problem, especially for those from Indonesia, where the local language's phonological structure is very different from English's. The goal of the study was to determine the elements that lead to phonological errors in Indonesian EFL students' sound production. Using a descriptive qualitative methodology, the study examined the factors that lead to growing errors in English phonology by analyzing several article and process them into new idea. The researchers looked at a number of variables, such as the learners' exposure to English and linguistic background, that affect these errors. The study also looked at how these elements work together to affect how Indonesian learners produce sounds. This study found several factors emerging phonological errors of Indonesian EFL student, they are phonetic system gap, social condition, and lack of phonological awareness. The study's emphasized how crucial it is to teach English pronunciation while taking the learners' native tongue and cultural background. EFL teachers should be aware of the variations in the phonological systems of English and Indonesian and implement teaching strategies that take these differences.

Abstract

The ability to read well is essential for learning English. Students' reading comprehension can be influenced by the application of efficient reading practices. Cognitive reading strategies are one method that can be used to enhance reading comprehension abilities. By using cognitive reading strategies, students can visualize information, absorb information in a predictable way, make connections between the text and prior knowledge, and evaluate their understanding. This study investigates the teacher's role in implementing cognitive reading strategies to improve students' reading comprehension abilities. This article uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a literature study design. Data was gathered through literature searches on Sinta, Google Scholar, Neliti.com, and ResearchGate. By arranging and summarizing research findings from several chosen articles, a descriptive analysis of the data was conducted. The findings indicate that the role of teachers is essential in helping students apply cognitive reading strategies to improve their reading comprehension skills, such as providing direction and guidance on reading strategies, modeling strategies, providing a supporting learning environment, activating students' prior knowledge, assisting and providing feedback to students, facilitating cooperative practice. However, this article only used secondary data so that the weakness of this article is the limited availability of related literature. Concerning the consequences, it is advised that future researchers might investigate deeper into the specific aspects that determine the successful implementation of cognitive reading strategies.
