Abstract

The purpose of this study is to ascertain whether those two factors significantly correlate with one another. With a total of 315 students in the tenth grade at SMAN 3 Enrekang, the population of this study was composed of 32 of those students. Purposive sampling was used to choose the sample. This study uses a quantitative correlational research design. The Sirchi (2021) questionnaire was used to obtain the data on self-confidence, while the monologue exam was used to collect data on speaking skills. The SPSS 25 program was used to analyze the data for this study. The study's findings suggest that there is a strong relationship between students' self-confidence and speaking ability because the correlation analysis between the two variables indicated a significant value (0.00) and a Pearson correlation (+0.55). The conclusion of this study is that students should be encouraged to pay more attention to their self-confidence because it can impact their ability to talk.

Abstract

This study explores students’ perceptions of their learning styles in the context of an English-speaking class. Using a descriptive qualitative design, data were collected through semi-structured interviews and documentation involving tenth-grade Culinary A students at SMKN 2 Gowa. The findings indicate that while students are unfamiliar with the theoretical concept of learning styles, they exhibit clear visual, auditory, and kinesthetic preferences in receiving, processing, and evaluating information. The results highlight that visual learners depend on visual aids, auditory learners seek verbal clarification, and kinesthetic learners prefer physical or group activities. Despite their conceptual limitations, students are aware of effective learning strategies that align with their personal styles. These insights underscore the importance of recognizing individual learning preferences to enhance instructional design in speaking classes.
