This research also found the factors that can support interpersonal communication between teachers and students. Those factors include understanding, closeness, good feedback, affection, empathy, equality, ethic, positiveness, supportiveness, openness between teachers and students; and adequate virtual communication media.

Abstract

As foreign language/second language (EFL/ESL) learners, vocabulary mastery is one of the important aspects of English. The centre of language teaching and important for language learners are aspects of vocabulary. Several studies have shown that teaching vocabulary can be considered a problem because some teachers are unsure about best practices in teaching and are not really aware of ways to initiate instructional vocabulary learning (Berne & Blachowicz, 2008). This article presents four aspects the EFL/ESL teacher might take into account when teaching vocabulary, namely: focus on frequent words, strategies for dealing with unknown words, lexical approach in teaching vocabulary, and semantic fields in vocabulary teaching.

The details were, each teacher was from SMA INSAN CENDEKIA SYECH YUSUF GOWA. The research instruments were interview, video recording, and documentations. Based on data analysis, it gathered several results; first, there were five roles of repetition which frequently appeared in the teachers spoken discourse namely, repetition as participatory listenership, ratifying listenership, expanding, evaluation through patterned rhythm, and humor (Tannen, 2007), from which expanding was the most dominant. Second, the female EFL teachers decide to employ or implement various roles of repetition in their oral communication through three phases, namely identification, determination, and evaluation (Simon, 1977). Having those findings, it is highly supported that by doing repetition properly in the teaching and learning process particularly in English encourages the teachers to maintain more vivid circumstances in their teaching particularly to maintain the students’ focus and the clarity of explanation

Abstract

Educational researchers have made great strides in theorizing teacher professional development, though attention is still concentrated on isolated mental processes. This study therefore reports on a narrative inquiry aiming to find out micro-level development process that occurs in two novice EFL teachers and also to reveal the features of teacher’s change that appear to facilitate English language teaching and learning. A variety of data collection techniques including; narrative frame, field notes, semi-structured interview and stimulated recall interview are used to make teachers’ behavioral, attitudinal and intellectual component of micro-level development explicit. Two overarching themes that emerge in this narrative inquiry are; the route to be a good English teacher and rediscovering the passion to teach. The important key finding of this study is that the early year of teaching is sensitively crucial to EFL teachers’ micro-level development, which is characterized by a positive shift from constructive experiences and aspiration of better English language learning process to internalization of empathy, attentive and responsive manner. Another key finding of this study is that all the novice EFL teachers who spoke positively about implementing changes in their classroom practices, embraced most of the process of micro level development that occurred, based on intuition, without clear theoretical underpinning of pedagogy, and merely classroom-bound focus. However, this study contributes to the current knowledge in relation to the crucial role of three distinct patterns of PD; discontent, aspiration and without intention

Abstract

The aims of this study were to find out the English students’ ability in paraphrasing academic writing texts and the students’ perceptions of paraphrasing academic writing texts. The researcher applied a case study research design. The data collection used mixed-methods (quantitative and qualitative data). The data for this research were collected through test and an interview. The researcher employed the test as an instrument to discover the students' ability to paraphrase academic writing texts. Meanwhile, interviews were conducted to reveal students' perceptions of paraphrasing in academic writing texts. The sample for the test were 31 students. All participants for the test must meet the following criteria: Participants must be currently enrolled as students in the English Study Program and must be registered in an academic writing class. The test given to students focuses on four aspects by Jordan (1999), namely paraphrasing by changing synonyms, verb forms, word classes, and synthesis. In the interview session, seven students were selected for the interview. They were selected based on their respective abilities. This was done to make the students' perceptions more varied. The results of the study showed that students' paraphrasing ability by replacing vocabulary with synonyms were in the excellent category with the percentages of 67.74% and paraphrasing ability by replacing verb forms (active and passive) were also in the excellent category with the percentages 48.38%. However, students' ability to paraphrase by replacing word classes were in the unsatisfactory category, with student percentages of 70.96% and students' ability to paraphrase by synthesizing sentences were also in the unsatisfactory category, with student percentages of 48.38%. In the terms of students’ perceptions of paraphrasing academic writing text, the study found that despite many challenges students face in paraphrasing academic writing texts such as students lack of vocabulary, grammatical problems, and difficulty understanding the text, students believe that by doing strategies such as reading widely, practicing regularly, and improving skills, as well as support from lecturers, students can improve their paraphrasing skills for the better
