Abstract

This study investigates the grammatical errors made by tenth-grade students in writing descriptive texts at SMK Telkom Medan. Adopting a descriptive qualitative approach, the research aimed to identify the types and sources of grammatical errors found in students’ writing. The data were collected through students’ written tasks and analyzed using the Surface Strategy Taxonomy by Dulay, Burt, and Krashen (1982), which classifies errors into omission, addition, misformation, and misordering. The findings revealed that misformation was the most frequent error (40.2%), followed by omission (33.7tc%), addition (16.8%), and misordering (9.2%). In terms of error sources, intralingual transfer was the dominant factor, indicating students’ overgeneralization of grammatical rules. Other sources included interlingual transfer, context of learning, and communication strategies. The results highlight the need for more targeted grammar instruction and feedback in EFL writing classes. This study contributes to improving grammar pedagogy and promoting more effective teaching strategies in descriptive writing instruction.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the strategies used by an English teacher in teaching reading comprehension at a junior high school, focusing on how these strategies support students’ understanding and the challenges encountered in their application. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were gathered through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis. The findings reveal that the teacher employed a combination of strategies, including pre-reading vocabulary activation, think-aloud modeling, reciprocal teaching, questioning techniques, and post-reading summarization. These strategies positively influenced students’ engagement, comprehension, and metacognitive awareness. However, the teacher also faced several challenges, such as time limitations, diverse student reading abilities, and lack of authentic materials. The study concludes that effective reading instruction requires not only teacher initiative and skill but also institutional support and resources. This research contributes to the understanding of real-life teaching practices and emphasizes the importance of strategy-based instruction in improving students' reading comprehension in EFL contexts.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between students’ self-efficacy and their English-speaking performance in delivering a monologue about future aspirations among 16 ninth-grade students at SMP PGRI 1 Medan. Self-efficacy, defined as students’ belief in their ability to accomplish a task, is considered an important factor influencing language learning, particularly speaking skills, which require confidence, fluency, and organization. Despite receiving English instruction, students often encounter difficulties in expressing their ideas due to limited vocabulary, anxiety, and the influence of their native accents. This study employed a quantitative correlational approach. Data on self-efficacy were collected through a structured questionnaire, while students’ speaking performance was evaluated using recorded monologues. The relationship between the variables was analyzed using Pearson’s Product-Moment Correlation to determine the extent to which self-efficacy influences students’ speaking performance. The results revealed a positive correlation between self-efficacy and speaking performance; however, the correlation was not statistically significant. This indicates that students with higher self-efficacy tended to demonstrate better speaking outcomes, although the relationship was not strong enough to draw definitive conclusions. The findings emphasize the importance of fostering self-efficacy through guided practice, feedback, and motivational activities to enhance students’ speaking abilities. Moreover, this study provides insights into how psychological factors can influence language performance in monologue tasks.

Abstract

This study examines how gamified quizzes can support junior high school students in improving their English reading comprehension. Using a qualitative approach, the research gathered rich insights from 25 students through interviews, focus group discussions, classroom observations, and weekly reflective journals. Throughout the lessons, students engaged with reading activities that included interactive game elements such as points,timers, and leaderboards. The findings show that these gamified quizzes helped students understand texts more effectively, especially when identifying main ideas, recognizing supporting details, and making inferences. Students reported that the instant feedback and engaging format made them more willing to reread passages and reflect on their answers. The study also found a noticeable increase in students’ motivation. Many who previously felt bored or uninterested in reading became more enthusiastic when tasks were presented as challenges. In addition, students demonstrated stronger critical-thinking habits, such as analyzing information more carefully and discussing different interpretations with their peers. Overall, the study suggests that gamified quizzes not only make reading activities more enjoyable but also encourage deeper thinking and more consistent engagement. These results highlight the potential of gamification as a meaningful addition to traditional reading instruction.
