Abstract

English is becoming essential in this quickly changing world because it is crucial for practically every aspect of life, especially communication. Speaking skills is a foundation for being able to communicate in English. However, many students still find it challenging to practice speaking English because it is not the mother tongue in Indonesia. This study investigated students' difficulties and the factors that cause them in English speaking practice. 80 students of Grade 10 Accounting students at SMK PGRI 2 Kudus were the participants in this study. A qualitative method was applied and the data of this study were collected through questionnaires and in-depth interviews. The questionnaire results revealed that students have difficulties in English practice; inhibition, nothing to say, low participation, and mother tongue use with "nothing to say" as the dominant difficulty. The factors that cause these difficulties include clustering (difficulty arranging sentences), redundancy (not knowing to explain correctly), still unfamiliar with the reduced form, low speaking performance, lack of vocab and not understanding what others are saying, low rate of delivery, and difficulty in pronunciation, stress, and intonation with clustering as the dominant factor. Regarding the dominant difficulty and its factor in the result of this study, the researcher suggests that teachers should always introduce new vocabulary daily so that students' vocabulary continues to increase. Moreover, the teacher should give the students an easy way to construct good sentences in speaking because they are still confused about arranging a correct sentence when practicing speaking.

Abstract

English holds great significance in Indonesia, particularly within Islamic boarding schools (Pesantren). Despite its introduction in primary schools, surveys reveal that the majority of graduates face common communication issues, such as inadequate speaking abilities and a dearth of interaction skills. Communicating in English for a second language speaker is a difficult task due to a variety of reasons associated with the fear of speaking English, such as language anxiety, restricted vocabulary, and a lack of exposure to the language, as argued by the researcher. This paper aims to offer an elaboration of vlog portfolio as a technique in teaching and assessing speaking in Islamic boarding schools. A vlog portfolio can be an alternate strategy for students in promoting their progress of speaking performance

Abstract

Since English is used frequently in everyday life, exposure to it is essential in non-formal education. Using storytelling techniques and incorporating English as local content can help create a new learning environment and combat boredom that stems from formal school fatigue. This study investigated how English storytelling can enhance speaking ability and foster a positive attitude toward learning English among non-formal school students. The research involved 52 students at Madrasah Diniyah, an Islamic non-formal school in Central Java utilizing test, questionnaire, and parent interviews. The research findings showed that the English Storytelling Technique can increase students' motivation to learn in non-formal schools and also improve their speaking ability. This is evidenced by the significant improvement in students' speaking ability, increasing from the initial level of 55% to 87% at the final level. The student's parents believe that because the Islamic non-formal school offers English language instruction, their children are more encouraged to learn the language. Therefore, the study suggests that the exposure of English learning should be given more and intensively to non-formal school in the future learning.

Abstract

Being able to speak English is important nowadays. It is a global language which is used in every part of life. As a foreign language, English has different position in Indonesian learners or students rather than those who are in English–second language countries. More students still regard English as subject should be accepted only in the class. This is one of factors students are difficult to master English, especially in speaking. Speaking English becomes something which is difficult since it is not practiced. A language must be used, must be applied as the medium of communication. Regarding to the purpose of communication, speaking relies on the message conveyed and the way it is delivered. Speaking basically is easier than other skills in English (Listening, Reading, and Writing). Unfortunately, most students feel have less confidence for speaking English. They are afraid for making mistakes. Knowing this condition, it is needed an intensive treatment through certain techniques so students will get used to talk in English without any barrier. Besides, their mental should be also sharpened so they will not be afraid to speak in English to others, moreover to public or in front of public. Therefore, researchers are eager to expose students’ speaking ability in the English Conversation Club (ECC) of SMA N 1 Kudus by using an Australasian Debate System. This technique will give more opportunity for students to explore their idea individually and in a team.

Abstract

Speaking is the process of expressing ideas, thoughts, emotions, or information through oral communication, serving as a key tool for exchanging messages between individuals. Speaking can be particularly difficult for English language learners to master because it needs not only the ability to pronounce words correctly, knowledge of vocabulary and grammar (linguistic), but also anxiety, a lack of practice opportunities, and insufficient exposure to actual spoken English can all limit the learning process (non-linguistic). This study aims to investigate the difficulties students have when learning English, particularly focusing on improving their speaking skills, and the techniques they use to overcome those difficulties.The study uses a case study research design and a qualitative approach and focuses on twelfth-grade Beauty and Spa major students at SMK PGRI 1 Kudus during the 2024/2025 academic year. The sample group consists of 27 students from the XII KS 1 class, with data collected through questionnaires and interviews.The findings indicate that students' motivation to learn English speaking improves when they receive positive support from peers, teachers, and family. Common struggles include fluency issues, difficulties in expressing thoughts, using correct tenses, and communicating clearly in English. To address these difficulties, students employ various strategies, such as using language-learning apps, participating in English clubs, watching English media with subtitles, and practicing independent speaking through self-narration and recordings. To further enhance their speaking skills, students can engage in activities like taking courses, joining extracurricular activities, using both school-provided and online English learning apps, and actively practicing speaking.
