Abstract

Mastering speaking skills is crucial for students to effectively communicate and access necessary information. Effective communication is a fundamental aspect of education and life in general, enabling individuals to express themselves clearly, engage in meaningful interactions, and convey information accurately. The research aims to investigate why TikTok is chosen as a medium for teaching speaking and assess its impact on student's speaking abilities. We conducted qualitative research. Thematic analysis was used in this research. Eight participants were involved in the study. In collecting the data, semi-structured was employed. The present study found three main findings. The first is the desire to use TikTok as media in learning English speaking. The second is a realization of using TikTok as media in learning English speaking. Thirdly, the positive impact of using TikTok to enhance their confidence in learning English speaking. Therefore, students exhibited increased confidence and comfort in expressing themselves through the application. The enjoyable nature of TikTok, coupled with its popularity among young people, contributes to its effectiveness as an innovative tool for teaching speaking skills. A suggestive suggestion for further study is the applicability of similar social media tools in language education across diverse contexts and student populations. Understanding how different groups respond to such tools can provide a more comprehensive understanding of their effectiveness. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Menguasai keterampilan berbicara sangat penting bagi siswa untuk berkomunikasi secara efektif dan mengakses informasi yang diperlukan.

Abstract

Textual enhancement technique is a technique that refers to the specific linguistics target through the text. The main purpose of this study was to determine whether the technique of using textual enhancement affects the students' grammar mastery, especially in the comparison degree material. Comparison degree is the process of comparing things, persons, or places through the level of quality, or relation and is formed by adjectives and adverbs. This research method was quantitative in the form of a pre-experimental design. There were 40 Indonesian Secondary School students participating in the study. They were randomly assigned to one control and one experimental group by 20 participants in each group. During the four-week period of the current study, the participants received the instructions and treatment. Then the experimental group was exposed to comparison degrees presented with four different textual enhancement techniques. The control group was exposed to comparison degrees used with a different technique (traditional technique) in teaching activities. The data were collected after instructional sessions during the four weeks through paragraphs focusing on comparison degrees production written by the participants. After the treatment, a comparison degree was also administered to the control group, as a posttest. The results showed that the textual enhancement technique can be an alternative strategy in learning English, significantly affecting Indonesian secondary school students’ comparison degrees.
