Abstract

This is the second year of the community service team to assist a private institution, Yayasan Al-Kahfi of Palembang, which provides teaching assistance to the orphan and disadvantage children as one of its mission. English was one of the subjects taught there once in a week. The obstacles faced were the educational background of the instructors which were not linear with the English subject, the lack of experience on how to teach English for young learners, the lack of teaching media, the limited time of teaching English which was only about 50 minutes, and the range of age in the same group that varied from kindergarten to first until third elementary class. Therefore, an effective and efficient teaching and learning strategy was extremely important to be implemented. Since teaching English for young learners should be in a kind of fun and pleasing atmosphere, therefore enjoyable and entertaining activities as one of the strategy can be used for this issue. These kinds of activities made the students unconsciously as if they were playing not studying. Therefore, the team made and modified games rules as the learning media to ease the students in learning English in terms of memorizing the vocabularies and making simple sentences in a fun and pleasing activities. The games proved that the teaching and learning activities can be done extremely effective and efficient.

Abstract

This study investigates blog writing as a dual-purpose medium for developing English language skills while serving as a promotional tool for Kopi 16Pro through the blog script titled "Ampera's Scenic Charm in Kopi 16Pro." Employing the Research and Development (R&D) method, the research identifies grammatical errors and lexeme selection in the blog script to enhance its linguistic accuracy and promotional effectiveness. Data were gathered through error analysis of the blog text, interviews with language experts, and feedback from potential readers. The findings reveal common grammatical issues and inappropriate lexeme use, which were addressed through iterative revisions, significantly improving the script's quality. The blog is a resource for tourists seeking information about tourism destinations, explicitly aiming to facilitate the easy discovery of Kopi 16Pro Palembang. The blog was uploaded on July 9, 2024; after 5 days of being uploaded, the blog received 80 views and several positive comments, such as "what a nice view" and "so informative and cannot wait to go there.” Finally, it concludes that blog writing can effectively develop language skills and promote business.
