Abstract

As English becomes the lingua franca of professional communication, many higher education institutions still overlook the importance of equipping EFL learners with targeted speaking skills for real-world occupational settings. This study responds to that pressing educational need by exploring the effectiveness of structured speaking worksheets in enhancing students' speaking proficiency and overall engagement in a professional communication course. Conducted through a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest design, the research involved 60 undergraduate English Education students at Tadulako University who were divided into an experimental group using speaking worksheets and a control group receiving conventional instruction. Students' speaking performance was evaluated across five critical dimensions: grammar, pronunciation, fluency, vocabulary, and contextual appropriateness. Engagement levels were measured using structured questionnaires. The results revealed a clear improvement in the speaking abilities of students who used the worksheets, accompanied by stronger motivation, enhanced self-confidence, and increased critical thinking. These gains, when compared to the outcomes of the control group, indicate the pedagogical value of incorporating structured, context-driven speaking materials into classroom instruction. Rather than functioning as simple practice tools, speaking worksheets emerged as dynamic resources that promoted learner agency, active participation, and deeper communicative competence. This study advances English for Professional Purposes by providing empirical support for using responsive, scenario-based materials in EFL instruction. It highlights the value of task-based, learner-centered approaches that connect academic learning with future workplace communication.

Abstract

The objective of this study was to examine whether the application of POSSE (predict, organize, search, summarize, evaluate) strategy could enhance the understanding of reading skills of tenth-grade pupils in SMAN 7 PALU. This study utilized designing quasi-experimental, dividing participants into an experiment group and a control group. The technique of purposive sampling was employed to decide the sample, comprising 36 students from the experimental group and 35 pupils from the control group. Gathering of data involved pre-test and post-test assessments, with analysis conducted utilizing paired sample t-tests with the support of SPSS v.29 for windows. The findings indicated that applying of the POSSE approach effectively enhanced the understanding of reading among tenth-grade students attending SMAN 7 PALU. This conclusion was substantiated by the results of conducting the paired sample t-test, which showed a statistically notable disparity (2-tailed=0.001<0.05) in the students’ learning outcomes between the initial assessment and subsequent assessment.

Abstract

This research aims to prove whether the use of minimal pairs can improve pronunciation of fricative sounds of the tenth grade students of SMA Negeri 2 Sigi. This research used a pre experimental design. The population of this research was 266 tenth grade students of SMA Negeri 2 Sigi. The sample was selected by employing a purposive sampling technique. The sample was 34 students of Class XC. To collect the data, a pronunciation test was used as the research instrument. The data were analyzed using SPSS 30. The findings revealed that the students’ pronunciation improve after getting the treatment. Based on the calculation, the mean score of posttest (72.73) is higher than the mean score of pre-test (43.07). It is supported by the data analysis using paired sample t-test. It showed that the value of Sig.(2-tailed) is lower than the chosen alpha level (0.000 0.05). Therefore, the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted and the null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected. It can be concluded that the use of minimal pairs can improve pronunciation of the tenth grade students of SMA Negeri 2 Sigi.

Abstract

Purpose – This study explores how syntax tree diagrams can help English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students better understand sentences that can be interpreted in multiple ways due to their structure. Structural ambiguity often confuses EFL learners, who may struggle to see how a sentence could have different meanings. While ambiguity in language is not new, there has not been much focus on practical ways to teach students how to deal with it.Methodology – Employing a pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design, this study involved 35 fifth-semester English Study Program students at Tadulako University. Participants received six sessions of instruction using syntax tree-based sentence parsing. Data were collected through a pretest, a post-test, and a structured questionnaire. The data were analysed using descriptive statistics and paired sample t-tests to determine whether the method had a significant impact.Findings – The findings verified that students developed better skills to understand ambiguous sentences. The post-test scores exceeded pretest scores, and students demonstrated improved abilities to recognize how different sentence arrangements produce different meanings. The questionnaire results confirmed that students developed increased confidence through the syntax tree method, which helped them understand sentence structure.Contribution – This research demonstrates that visual tools, such as a syntax tree, provide valuable benefits for teaching English syntax to students. This research demonstrates that showing students sentence structure through visualization helps them understand complex grammar rules better. The findings present practical information for teachers who want to develop better classroom methods for teaching ambiguous sentence structures

Abstract

Reading skills are very important for students such as students can get information from reading, students can improve their knowledge, students can expand their way of thinking by reading any text. Thus, this research aims to determine whether using the effectiveness of the Preview, Question, Read, Summarize, and Test (PQRST) method in enhancing reading comprehension skills of tenth-grade students at SMA Negeri 1 Torue. The researcher used purposive sampling approaches to get the sample. Using a quasi-experimental design with 72 participants divided equally into experimental and control group. Data were collected through pre-test and post-test on recount texts. The pre-test measured students' prior knowledge, where as the post-test measured students' improvement in reading comprehension using the PQRST method following the treatment.  The results show that the experimental group improves significantly in reading comprehension, with the mean score rising from 59.64 in the pre-test to 87.28 in the post-test. In comparison, the control group showed a modest increase, with mean scores increasing from 65.19 to 75.83. Statistical analyses confirmed the PQRST method that the improvement in the experimental group was statistically significant (p 0.05). The findings show that using the PQRST method successfully improves students' conceptual comprehension and promotes more fair learning outcomes. As a result, it is recommended that the PQRST method be used more widely to teach reading comprehension in senior high schools.
