Abstract

Pronunciation in a second language (L2) is often influenced by the first language (L1), which can hinder intelligibility. Indonesian speakers struggle with certain English sounds, such as /θ/ and /ð/, due to their absence in the L1 phonetic system. To identify the influence of L1 on L2 pronunciation in the context of English language learning in Indonesia and propose strategies to reduce negative transfer effects. This qualitative study used a case study approach, involving 9 students from an English club at XYZ School. A pronunciation test was conducted to measure phonetic transfer between L1 and L2. Results show that L1 phonetic transfer causes errors in specific phonemes. Words with higher phonetic complexity are more challenging to pronounce correctly. Negative phonetic transfer and a lack of prosodic training were identified as major obstacles. Context-based and intensive phonetic training significantly improves pronunciation skills. L2 pronunciation errors are strongly influenced by L1, phonetic complexity, and individual experience. Contextual learning and individualized approaches positively impact pronunciation improvement.

Abstract

This research aims to explore students’ perceptions of the use of e-learning in English teaching activities. The study was conducted to understand how students respond to and engage with digital learning platforms during their English classes, especially in the context of increasing reliance on online education. Using a qualitative approach, data were collected through questionnaires from college students. The findings reveal that most students perceive e-learning as a helpful tool that offers flexibility, access to various resources, and opportunities for independent learning. However, challenges such as lack of motivation, technical issues, and limited interaction with teachers were also identified. Overall, while students acknowledged the benefits of e-learning in enhancing their English skills, they also emphasized the importance of combining it with traditional face-to-face instruction for more effective learning outcomes. This study highlights the importance of improving digital infrastructure and instructional design to ensure that e-learning is both effective and engaging in English education
