Abstract

The key in language learning and acquisition is exposure towards said language. The most feasible exposure for English learners in the EFL setting is reading due to practicality, continuity, and suitable sources. Their reading success depends on their attitude, motivation, and habit. This research sought to determine the state of learners’ attitude, motivation, and habit toward reading in English. This qualitative exploratory research was initiated in 2020, taking place at the State Islamic University of Raden Intan Lampung (UIN RIL) and the Indonesian State Maritime Polytechnic (Polimarin). The research population included learners registered in those two universities, with 88 (51.8%) from UIN RIL and 82 (48.2%) from Polimarin selected through quota sampling. A 20 items-questionnaire, complemented by some interview sessions, were used to collect the research data. The collected data were then processed through a model consisting of four stages; data collection, data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The results revealed that the learners showed a generally favourable attitude toward reading in English. This stemmed from good responses shown from all factors of English reading attitude. It should be noted that the previous reading experience factor was the most unfavourable one due to poor start of reading activity. Meanwhile, the learners showed mixed responses regarding their motivation toward reading in English. Two factors, access to materials and English proficiency, were the ones that need further attention, as most learners still lacked in that regard. Ultimately, the learners’ reading habits were still deficient in their native language and even more so in their English reading habits. Keywords: Attitude, Habit, Motivation, Reading, Second Language.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze narrative texts written by 9th-grade students using transitivity analysis. The subjects were selected by several teachers who believed the class was suitable for the study based on their perspectives. Out of the 32 students involved, only 14 wrote narrative texts that met the established criteria. The remaining texts included 6 recount texts, 11 descriptive texts, and 1 procedural text. The transitivity analysis of the 14 narrative texts revealed that students utilized various processes, including material, mental, and relational processes, with a noticeable dominance of material processes. The results of this study revealed that although students could write narrative texts, there were still variations in the use of incomplete generic structures and less varied language features. This can be seen in the results of the transitivity process percentage, material processes showed a rate of 52%, mental processes (22%), verbal processes (8%), behavioral processes (5%), relational processes (12%), and existential processes (1%). These results do not indicate that students' writing follows the grammatical features that apply to narrative texts, where material and mental processes dominate. This study provides insight into students’ narrative writing skills and the use of transitivity in their writing. It provides a basis for developing more effective curriculum and instructional strategies in teaching narrative text in grade 9. The study also identified several limitations, including the limited sample size and manual analysis, which may affect the generalizability of the findings. Recommendations for further research include the use of linguistic analysis software and expanding the research sample.

Abstract

This study examines the factors contributing to speaking difficulties among EFL secondary school learners and offers teachers insights for effectively addressing these challenges. The study aims to augment pedagogical techniques to enhance speaking proficiency results. The study utilized a descriptive qualitative methodology, with 30 class XI students chosen to reflect varied experiences and viewpoints. Data has been collected via open-ended surveys and interviews, using thematic analysis to discern patterns and recurring themes. The results indicate that lacking confidence, restricted vocabulary, and an unsupportive classroom atmosphere substantially impede students' speaking skills. Furthermore, students identified the fear of errors and peer evaluation as significant obstacles. The research emphasizes effective measures for enhancement, including participation in English clubs, consistent practice, and cultivating a supportive teaching environment. These findings underscore the significance of customized instructional strategies and inclusive practices that foster an optimal learning environment. This research highlights the essential function of educators in enabling students to surmount speaking difficulties, enhance self-assurance, and improve communication abilities. By tackling these challenges, EFL learners can cultivate the proficiency required to excel in academic and practical environments.

Abstract

In Indonesian secondary schools, low student participation and constrained classroom interaction remain persistent impediments to English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learning outcomes. This study examined the association between student voice—defined as students' perceived opportunities to express opinions, contribute to classroom decisions, and receive teacher responsiveness—and English achievement among ninth-grade students at SMP Negeri 1 Tanjungsari, South Lampung, Indonesia. A quantitative correlational design was employed, with student voice operationalized through a nine-item, 4-point Likert-type questionnaire (Cronbach's α = .853) and English achievement measured via school-recorded semester final scores. Assumptions for Pearson's r were satisfied: both variables approximated normality (Shapiro–Wilk: p > .10), a linear relationship was indicated, and no extreme outliers were detected. The analysis revealed a small, statistically non-significant association between student voice and English achievement, r(18) = .172, p = .469, 95% CI [−.30, .58], r² ≈ .03. Although the correlation did not attain significance, the findings suggest that student voice may exert an indirect influence on English achievement through motivational and affective pathways—including self-efficacy, confidence, and engagement—rather than operating as a direct predictor of test performance. The study contributes empirical evidence from an under-researched Indonesian EFL context, affirming the need to integrate student-voice practices with responsive instructional strategies and to examine indirect effects via mediation models in future research.

Abstract

Despite the increasing prevalence of digital educational materials, code-switching as a viable teaching strategy has gained significant traction. This study aimed to identify structural codes of code-switching and their use in communication within the YouTube playlist "Learning English from Zero" by Ritueli Daeli, consisting of episodes 1 to 5. In this study, a qualitative approach employed inductive content analysis with a deductive coding scheme to examine 196 code-switches across a cumulative total of 84 minutes using the frameworks proposed by Poplack (1980) and Appel & Muysken (2006). The study determined that overall, inter-sentential code-switching dominated, with 106 instances (54.08%), while referential code-switching comprised the majority of instances within the discourse, with 104 instances (53.06%), followed by the use of metalinguistic code-switching with 55 instances (28.06%). This study determined that code-switching as an element in teaching can be highly beneficial, particularly for beginners navigating the ESL environment.
