Abstract

Teacher personality competence plays a critical role in shaping the effectiveness of the learning process. It refers to the personal qualities and characteristics that a teacher brings to the classroom, influencing how they interact with students, manage the learning environment, and serve as role models. This competence includes indicators such as honesty, exemplary conduct, a strong work ethic, high responsibility, pride in the profession, and self-confidence. Research suggests that personality competence not only affects the teacher-student relationship but also contributes to students' academic and personal development. Through observation, interviews, and documentation, this study investigates the personality competence of English teachers at SMK Negeri 1 Botomuzoi. The findings reveal that while the teachers demonstrate several positive traits, there are areas where improvements are needed, particularly in self-discipline, responsibility, and demonstrating pride in the teaching profession. The study underscores the need for continuous professional development to enhance teachers' personality competence, which in turn can positively impact the overall educational experience for students.

Abstract

This research entitled “Determining Students’ Speaking Skill Based on Guessing Game at the Eighth Grade of SMP Negeri 2 Lolofitu Moi” aims to determine students’ speaking skill levels and the factors influencing them through the use of a guessing game. This study employed a qualitative descriptive method with data collected from observation and interviews with students and an English teacher. The results showed that most students were at the basic speaking level, able to produce simple sentences but still made errors in pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary. The guessing game made learning more interactive and enjoyable, increased students’ confidence, and encouraged active participation. However, challenges such as limited vocabulary and fear of mistakes remained. It can be concluded that guessing games effectively improved students’ motivation and speaking confidence, although further practice is needed to enhance fluency and accuracy.
