Abstract

This study aims to determine whether the effect of tongue twisters can improve the pronunciation of eleventh-grade students at SMA Negeri 1 Lembo. A quasi-experimental design was employed with a sample of 64 students selected using random sampling techniques. Random sampling was chosen to reduce bias, produce a representative sample, facilitate statistical analysis, and allow for replicability of the research. Data were collected through writing tests administered twice as pre-test and post-test. The pre-test was given to the experimental group before the treatment, while the post-test was administered afterward. The researcher collected and analyzed the data using the formula proposed by (Cohen et al., 2007) and SPSS 22. The results indicated a significant improvement in the pronunciation scores of the experimental group, with a pre-test average of 51.56 and a post-test average of 77.97. In contrast, the control group showed a smaller improvement. The Mann-Whitney test revealed a significant difference between the two groups (p < 0.05), indicating that innovative teaching methods can enhance students' pronunciation skills. These findings suggest integrating interactive activities into English language teaching, and training for teachers is necessary to implement this method effectively. The study also opens up opportunities for further exploration of other variations of games in teaching pronunciation.

Abstract

This research aims to investigate the effectiveness of the Listen English Daily Practice application to improve the listening skills of tenth-grade students at SMK Negeri 8 Palu. The study used a quasi-experimental design by Cohen et al. (2005:214) with pre-test and post-test given to both the experimental and control classes. Class X Mining Geology A was assigned as the experimental group and class X Mining Geology B as the control class, each consists of 25 students. Data were analyzed using SPSS. The results showed that students in the experimental class achieved a significantly higher post-test score compared to the control group, with a mean increase from 56.64 to 79.12. This indicates that the use of the Listen English Daily Practice application is considered an effective medium to improve students’ listening skills. The application’s features, such as vocabulary lists, audio transcripts, and interactive tests, contributed to increased motivation and independent learning.

Abstract

The primary objective of this research was to investigate the effectiveness of the shadowing technique in improving the listening skills of eleventh-grade students at MAN 2 Parigi. Using a quasi-experimental design, the study compared two groups: an experimental group that received listening instruction through shadowing and a control group that received conventional instruction. Assessment tools consisted of pre- and post-tests with multiple-choice and fill-in-the-blank items designed to evaluate micro and macro listening skills. The findings revealed substantial improvement in the listening performance of the experimental group after the intervention. Their mean score increased significantly from 43.33 on the pretest to 84.17 on the posttest. In contrast, the control group showed only a marginal increase, from 27.59 to 39.66. Statistical analysis using the Mann-Whitney U test revealed a significance value of 0.000, confirming a statistically significant difference between the two groups. Based on this result, the null hypothesis was rejected in favor of the alternative hypothesis. Therefore, it can be concluded that the shadowing technique significantly improves the listening skills of eleventh-grade students at MAN 2 Parigi.

Abstract

Many (EFL) frequently encounter difficulties in developing their speaking abilities, frequently because of restricted chances for practice and the lack of of interactive activities in the classroom. This research aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the Dixit board game in enhancing the speaking abilities of eleventh-grade students at SMA Negeri 9 Palu through a quasi-experimental design. The study included two groups: class XI MIA 2, which acted as the experimental group, and class XI MIA 1, which served as the control group, both selected through purposive sampling. A speaking test was employed as the research instrument, focusing on three main criteria: fluency, accuracy, and comprehensibility. Both groups underwent a pre-test and a post-test, with the experimental group participating in six treatment sessions using the Dixit board game. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS version 25. The results indicated that the average score of the experimental group increased from 54.46 to 76.46, while the control group’s score rose from 49.10 to 59.20. The Shapiro-Wilk test confirmed normal distribution of the data, and Levene’s Test indicated equal variances (p = 0.610 > 0.05). A paired sample t-test demonstrated a significant improvement in the experimental group (p = 0.000 < 0.05), and an independent sample t-test revealed a significant difference in post-test scores between the two groups (p = 0.000 < 0.05). These findings suggest that utilizing the Dixit board game significantly enhances students’ speaking skills and supports its use as an interactive and student-centered tool in EFL speaking instruction.

Abstract

This study explored the intrinsic and extrinsic factors shaping EFL students' speaking confidence at an Islamic senior high school in Indonesia. Using a qualitative descriptive design, data were collected through semi-structured interviews with five eleventh-grade EFL students who were purposively selected based on their varying levels of active participation and speaking ability in English classes. Interview transcripts were analyzed using thematic analysis to identify patterns in factors affecting speaking confidence. The findings revealed five intrinsic factors shaping speaking confidence: (1) self-esteem (moderate to high levels), (2) motivation (integrative and instrumental types), (3) language proficiency (intermediate to advanced self-rated ability), (4) language anxiety (moderate to high levels), and (5) past speaking experiences (positive or negative). Four extrinsic factors emerged: (1) teacher support (encouragement, corrective feedback, patience), (2) peer influence (supportive versus critical responses), (3) classroom atmosphere (competitive versus collaborative), and (4) institutional speaking programs (debate clubs, English days). Students who received consistent positive feedback and supportive peer interactions demonstrated increased willingness to communicate, while those experiencing fear of making mistakes or negative peer responses showed reduced participation. This study contributes to EFL research by providing context-specific insights from an Indonesian Islamic senior high school setting, demonstrating that speaking confidence is dynamically shaped through the interaction between learners' psychological conditions and their learning environment. The findings offer practical implications for EFL educators to create supportive classroom conditions and implement structured speaking opportunities.
