Abstract

In English language teaching, cognitive linguistics has played an important role in classroom activities. This can be the depicted in the use of the textbooks. In this study, the textbook used is English for international Relations book, a part of English for Specific Purposes series published by Universitas Muhammadiyah Malang. Two of the features that chime cognitive linguistics principles are metaphors and categorization leading to prototype. Meanwhile, one of the clashes that is apparent in the textbook is the use of English which is unnatural, one of the factors is the textbook is used in a non-English speaking country. In the end, there are some suggestions on how to deal with the tenets of cognitive linguistics for the features that still clash with the principles of cognitive linguistics. First, it can be done by introducing some words that may have different meanings if they are added with different prepositions. The second example might be adjusting the use of the pictures and illustrations with the text and context. Also, the learners are suggested to know the patterns of the target language as they are different from their mother tongue.

Abstract

Despite the pivotal role of local tour guides to promote tourist attractions in their region, most of them cannot use English communicatively. There is a need to upskill their English level through a training program. This study aims to evaluate Trenggalek’s local tour guides after joining a series of training on Speaking and Writing in English. This study employs a qualitative design with the test results analysis. Five tour guides were tested through verbal and written assessment through a contextualized framework that fit Indonesians’ characteristics as EFL learners. Their abilities were analyzed through adapted rubrics and scoring criteria. Results show that only a few tour guides successfully upgraded their English skills. However, they showed more diverse Speaking abilities compared to their Writing ability. These findings imply that more focus should be put on the training of Speaking skill, and that more workshops should be presented in series coupled with follow-up activities to get tour guides used to using English.
