Abstract

Grammar plays a crucial role in enhancing speaking ability by providing a structural framework that ensures clear, logical, and organized communication. Mastery of grammar helps speakers construct grammatically correct sentences, thereby reducing ambiguity and improving overall fluency. This study aims to explore students' perspectives on the function of grammar in English-speaking proficiency, particularly among students in the English Language Education study program. A qualitative research method was employed, with data collected through structured interviews. The sample consisted of 20 students enrolled in the program. The findings indicate that the majority of students perceive grammar as essential in speaking, as it helps them avoid misunderstandings, build credibility as speakers, and boost their confidence. Overall, the study highlights the importance of grammar in effective communication, suggesting that a balanced approach to grammar instruction is necessary for developing both accuracy and fluency.Keywords; Students’ Perspective, Grammar, Speaking.

Abstract

This study aims to identify effective strategies used by first-year students to enhance their speaking skills. Additionally, it seeks to explore how these students develop their speaking abilities and the factors that support their learning process. A qualitative approach was employed, with data collected through direct interviews. The study involved 10 first-year students majoring in English Education at Muhammadiyah University of Makassar. The findings reveal that students utilize a combination of speaking practice, watching movies, listening to music, interacting with native speakers, and leveraging technology or language-learning applications to improve their speaking proficiency. These findings emphasize the importance of varied learning strategies and external support in language acquisition, offering valuable insights for educators and language learners aiming to develop effective oral communication skills.
