Abstract

This study was designed to find out if there are significant differences in writing skills between students who are taught by means of Padlet and those who are not, and to find out the teacher’s and students’ perceptions of the implementation of Padlet in teaching writing. This mixed method study used quantitative data completed with a quasi-experimental pre-test and post-test control group design, and with a semi-structured interview for the qualitative data.  The study engaged 20 students as the experimental and control group. Based on the statistical data, after the teacher's treatment using Padlet on students' writing recount text, the t-observed value was higher than the t- table value. Thus, the null hypothesis (H0) was rejected and the alternative hypothesis (HI) was accepted. So, Padlet in the class on writing recount text reveals that there are differences in the improvement of students' abilities. Furthermore, the perceptions of teachers and students from the results of both interviews are of the notion that Padlet can improve writing skills, particularly in writing recount text. The finding showed that Padlet is effective as a media to improve students' writing skills. Some recommendations are addressed, particularly for the teacher and future research. Teachers are recommended to use the Padlet application as a media in teaching writing recount text and as one of the effective technology media. Since the present study only focus on mean differences in student improvement, the next researcher are expected to find out the significance of changes or differences in student achievement.

Abstract

This study explores speaking anxiety among students during impromptu presentations. Speaking anxiety, characterized by discomfort and excessive worry, can impact students' well-being and necessitate social support. The research investigates students’ experiences and influencing factors using a qualitative case study approach. Data was collected from 35 tenth-grade students at MAN 1 Garut through questionnaires and interviews. The questionnaire reached 35 participants from class X-4, while interviews involved 4 selected students. Results reveal that most students experience anxiety during impromptu presentations, manifesting as nervousness, mental withdrawal, and fear of making mistakes or negative judgments. To mitigate speaking anxiety, teachers can employ strategies such as improving body language and eye contact. The study emphasizes the importance of teacher support and motivation in helping students overcome anxiety. For students, the findings underscore the commonality of speaking anxiety and the need for more practice and mental health awareness when facing spontaneous presentations. Teachers' sensitivity and patience are key to addressing this issue effectively.

Abstract

This study discusses pre-service EFL teachers’ anxiety in teaching English speaking skills focusing on the strategies to reduce the anxiety and how it affects the quality of teaching. The qualitative case study is conducted in a University in Ciamis involving 23 pre-service EFL teachers. Questionnaires were used to gather the data. The first result reveals that pre-service EFL teachers need to implement some strategies to motivate students and reduce anxiety in teaching English as a foreign language.

For future researchers, the writer suggests they investigate the anxiety of pre-service EFL teachers assisted with psychologists to find a better solution.

Abstract

This study investigates the implementation of the Peer Tutoring method in developing students’ speaking skills within one of the English communities in Tasikmalaya. This research applied a qualitative case study approach which involved questionnaires and semi-structured interviews to explore two main questions: (1) how Peer Tutoring enhances students’ speaking skills, and (2) how it influences their confidence in speaking English. The findings reveal that Peer Tutoring significantly improves students’ speaking abilities, particularly in vocabulary, pronunciation, fluency, and confidence. Most participants reported feeling more comfortable and motivated in peer-led sessions compared to traditional classroom settings. Moreover, peer tutors benefited from improved public speaking and leadership skills, while peer learners gained confidence and practical speaking experience in a supportive environment. Despite some challenges, such as nervousness and initial communication barriers, both tutors and tutees adapted and showed progress over time. The study concludes that Peer Tutoring is an effective, collaborative strategy that supports both linguistic and personal development in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) context. The future research are recommended to conduct the broaden research. Further research is recommended to conduct broader research from various aspects, such as different methodological approaches to gain deeper insights.
