The findings from the analysis indicated that extensive reading as the main input with additional of other skills. Exposure and repetition for meanings and retentions should be balancedly planned preventing from counterproductive effects. The explicit instruction needs of integration of interrelated components for the acquisition and learning to occur, namely input, media, time length, meanings, tasks, EFL teachers roles, L2 learners motivation, references, and evaluation. The larger the vocabulary size, the greater their engagement in L2 learning and real communication.

Abstract

A crucial ability expected of EFL students is a critical and creative thinking ability. Questioning method is regarded as the most important technique for encouraging students to build this ability. Because the students are anxious about making mistakes, they remain silent when teachers ask them. Thus, using questioning strategies in giving questions can be a way to engage them in interactive activities. This research, therefore, was aimed to investigate teacher’s questioning strategies in teaching English and the reasons for using them. This study employed qualitative descriptive design by conducting an online interview and giving questionnaire to an English teacher of a private junior high school in Jember. The results of this study showed that the English teacher always (100%) used divergent questions in class in the middle and at the end of learning process. The goals were to know students’ opinion, develop their critical and creative thinking skills and improve their knowledge. Further, the teacher usually (80%) used procedural questions in the beginning of the lesson to maintain time management, check students’ conditions and class routine. Finally, the teacher sometimes (60%) used convergent questions to get short answers from the students and help them recalled the material.

Abstract

This study addresses students’ difficulties in mastering English tenses in EFL classrooms, particularly in applying tense forms accurately in context. The objective of this research was to describe students’ English tenses mastery and classroom learning processes through the use of the Wheel of Grammar Game. This study employed a descriptive research design and was conducted at MAN 2 Jember involving 31 eleventh-grade students. The data were collected through classroom observation and grammar tests administered in the form of pre-test and post-test focusing on four basic English tenses: simple present, present continuous, simple past, and past continuous. The findings revealed that the implementation of the Wheel of Grammar Game encouraged active student participation and created a more interactive classroom atmosphere. In addition, the post-test mean score was higher than the pre-test mean score, indicating a tendency toward better understanding of English tenses after the learning activities. This study provides a descriptive contribution to grammar instruction by presenting the Wheel of Grammar Game as an alternative classroom activity to support students’ grammar learning.

Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT) in enhancing students’ speaking skills. The research is motivated by the observed deficiency in learners’ practical speaking abilities, which limits their communicative competence in real-world interactions. TBLT is proposed as a dynamic instructional method aimed at fostering greater communicative fluency and learner confidence. A quantitative quasi-experimental design was employed, utilizing a pretest-posttest control group approach. Two classes were selected through random sampling: the experimental group received instruction via TBLT, while the control group followed conventional teaching methods. Homogeneity tests confirmed that both groups were statistically comparable, whereas normality tests revealed a non-normal distribution, prompting the use of the Mann-Whitney U test for analysis. The results yielded a significance value of 0.00 (p < 0.05), indicating a statistically significant improvement in the experimental group compared to the control group. These findings support the conclusion that Task-Based Language Teaching has a meaningful and positive impact on students’ speaking proficiency
