This study aims to explore the scaffolding instruction used in developing students’ speaking and describe the teacher's perspective after using scaffolding to support and help students develop their English speaking skills. A qualitative descriptive research method was used in this study that aims to describe the situation observed in the field more precisely, transparently, and in-depth. The focus of this study was one English teacher in a primary school. In collecting the data, the researcher conducted semi-structured interviews and observations to obtain the teacher’s perception and the instructional scaffolding used in teaching speaking. Then in analyzing data, the researcher adopts Miles and Huberman's (1994) method consisting of data reduction, data display, and conclusion or drawing. The results showed that the types of scaffolding used by the researcher in teaching English were two types: modelling and bridge, and then the positive and negative effects were provided. Significantly, this study can be used as a reference in supporting students to develop their speaking skills through instructional scaffolding.

Abstract

The critical objective of this present study is to conduct substantial evaluation of TOEFL as a language assessment tool. Using a qualitative method, the authors of the present study evaluated various specific issues based on a set of predetermined criteria such as practicality, test reliability, validity, authenticity, and washback impact. The analysis indicates that TEOFL ITP is both feasible and dependable. The TOEFL's dependability is based on these three components. However, unless the ITP test is altered from the previously used TOEFL, the TOEFL ITP is as reliable as the TOEFL PBT. In theory, its trustworthiness is uncertain, and more investigation is needed. It is debatable whether the TOEFL ITP test items can accurately represent this task when utilized for the placement test. TOEFL ITP is a reliable English test. Knowing the TOEFL significance encourages test takers to enhance their English skills as part of the exam. More students want to take lessons to enhance their grades.
