Abstract

This study aims to explore the strategies used by an English teacher in teaching reading comprehension at a junior high school, focusing on how these strategies support students’ understanding and the challenges encountered in their application. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were gathered through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis. The findings reveal that the teacher employed a combination of strategies, including pre-reading vocabulary activation, think-aloud modeling, reciprocal teaching, questioning techniques, and post-reading summarization. These strategies positively influenced students’ engagement, comprehension, and metacognitive awareness. However, the teacher also faced several challenges, such as time limitations, diverse student reading abilities, and lack of authentic materials. The study concludes that effective reading instruction requires not only teacher initiative and skill but also institutional support and resources. This research contributes to the understanding of real-life teaching practices and emphasizes the importance of strategy-based instruction in improving students' reading comprehension in EFL contexts.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between students’ self-efficacy and their English-speaking performance in delivering a monologue about future aspirations among 16 ninth-grade students at SMP PGRI 1 Medan. Self-efficacy, defined as students’ belief in their ability to accomplish a task, is considered an important factor influencing language learning, particularly speaking skills, which require confidence, fluency, and organization. Despite receiving English instruction, students often encounter difficulties in expressing their ideas due to limited vocabulary, anxiety, and the influence of their native accents. This study employed a quantitative correlational approach. Data on self-efficacy were collected through a structured questionnaire, while students’ speaking performance was evaluated using recorded monologues. The relationship between the variables was analyzed using Pearson’s Product-Moment Correlation to determine the extent to which self-efficacy influences students’ speaking performance. The results revealed a positive correlation between self-efficacy and speaking performance; however, the correlation was not statistically significant. This indicates that students with higher self-efficacy tended to demonstrate better speaking outcomes, although the relationship was not strong enough to draw definitive conclusions. The findings emphasize the importance of fostering self-efficacy through guided practice, feedback, and motivational activities to enhance students’ speaking abilities. Moreover, this study provides insights into how psychological factors can influence language performance in monologue tasks.
