Problems that often arise in teaching English voice and Accent are limited material and references used. The integration of ICTs in EFL learning offers some tools to learn English voice and accent. One of them is TED Talks. TED Talks is a website and a downloaded application where the video is shared in which you can see a wide variety of English speakers in many parts of around the world speaking. This study aims to reveal students’ ability in analysing English Accents during the implementation of TED Talks video and the students’ response regarding the implementation of TED Talks video in learning voice and accents. In this action research, we propose a reflection on the incidence of TED talks on the teaching and learning of voice and accents. The instruments used to collect data were interviews, questionnaires, and teacher journals. The results of this study indicated that the students’ ability in analysing English voice and accents were improved. They enable to differentiate several of English accents. Moreover, they also have better understanding related to the message conveyed from the video they watched. Besides, the students gave positive responses to the implementation of TED Talks video. Most of them mentioned that TED Talks video helps them to comprehend English voice and accents better. Thus, TED talks prove to be a useful material for English teaching as a foreign language considering that they assemble many characteristics that catch students’ attention and get them related with the language spoken in actual contexts.

English lecturers frequently worry about encouraging students to use English in spontaneous conversation, mainly English, for specified purposes. The study details classroom activities that encourage students to talk spontaneously in Agriculture. An early stage of group preparation is required to instil confidence in students to speak English freely in class. Students are responsible for identifying themes and laying the framework for class discussions. Cultivation, food production, and cattle business are suggested materials for various class activities. The teacher's role is to enlighten students about available resources, establish ground rules, and promote free expression. These events are intended to instil students’ confidence in English speaking.

Pendidikan bahasa Inggris memiliki peran penting dalam meningkatkan kemampuan berbahasa Inggris masyarakat, termasuk anggota Karang Taruna di Desa Candrajaya. Namun, terbatasnya akses terhadap pembelajaran formal sering menjadi hambatan bagi mereka untuk mengembangkan kemampuan berbahasa Inggris. Oleh karena itu, pengabdian ini bertujuan untuk menyelenggarakan sosialisasi penggunaan aplikasi Duolingo sebagai sarana pembelajaran Bahasa Inggris mandiri bagi anggota Karang Taruna Desa Candrajaya. Metode yang digunakan dalam pengabdian ini adalah pendekatan partisipatif, dimana para anggota Karang Taruna akan dilibatkan secara aktif dalam proses sosialisasi dan pemanfaatan aplikasi Duolingo. Pengabdian ini akan melibatkan 30 anggota Karang Taruna yang memiliki minat dan motivasi untuk belajar Bahasa Inggris. Mereka akan diberikan pelatihan penggunaan aplikasi Duolingo dan diarahkan untuk menggunakan aplikasi tersebut secara mandiri dalam pembelajaran Bahasa Inggris. Hasil dari pengabdian ini diharapkan dapat memberikan pemahaman kepada anggota Karang Taruna tentang potensi aplikasi Duolingo sebagai alat bantu pembelajaran Bahasa Inggris mandiri. Selain itu, diharapkan juga dapat meningkatkan motivasi dan minat belajar Bahasa Inggris serta memberikan kesempatan bagi mereka untuk mengembangkan kemampuan berbahasa Inggris secara mandiri tanpa tergantung pada pembelajaran formal. Melalui PKM ini, diharapkan anggota Karang Taruna Desa Candrajaya dapat merasakan manfaat dari penggunaan aplikasi Duolingo dalam meningkatkan kemampuan berbahasa Inggris mereka. Selain itu, pengabdian ini juga dapat memberikan inspirasi bagi masyarakat lainnya untuk memanfaatkan teknologi dalam pembelajaran Bahasa Inggris mandiri. Diharapkan hasil pengabdian ini dapat memberikan kontribusi positif dalam upaya peningkatan kemampuan berbahasa Inggris di tingkat komunitas lokal.

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed all activities in various fields, including education. Learning that has long been done conventionally, has now been done completely online. This presents various impacts in its implementation. The purpose of this study was to find out the barriers faced by English teachers during online teaching in the pandemic. This research was conducted in one senior high school in Majalengka Regency, with three English teachers as samples. The method used is qualitative research with a case study approach. The research instrument were observation and interviews. The results showed that there were various problems that barriers the online learning process. These barriers are caused by internal and external factors. Where internal factors are problems that come from within the teachers themselves such as (1) teachers have difficulty in building character, (2) lack of knowledge about ICT, (3) teaching styles such as methods and media that teachers use (4) difficulties in building good classrooms effective, which is caused by learning burnout and lack of interaction, and (5) lack of time. Then the obstacles contained in the external factors are the obstacles experienced by students which can become barriers for teachers in teaching online, including: (1) economic problems and (2) lack of support. It can be conclude that online learning still has various barriers in its implementation so that further research is needed to find a solution, then the learning can be carried out optimally.
