Abstract

Phonology is an important aspect of learning English as a foreign language, especially for beginners. Understanding the English sound system not only helps improve pronunciation, but also strengthens listening and speaking skills. However, many students experience difficulties due to the phonological differences between their native language and English. This article aims to present effective strategies in teaching phonology based on recent findings. The method used is a literature study by analyzing various relevant literature sources. The results show that strategic approaches such as the use of AI-based technology, minimal pair practice, articulation visualization, as well as providing continuous feedback can significantly improve students' phonological awareness. Other strategies such as reading rhyming poems, singing rhyming songs, and sound manipulation exercises also play an important role in helping students recognize and produce sounds better. With targeted and needs-based phonology teaching, communication skills in English can be effectively improved.

Abstract

This study investigates the effect of students’ syntax mastery on writing accuracy in English as a Foreign Language (EFL). Writing accuracy is closely related to the correct application of syntactic rules, including sentence structure, word order, and grammatical relationships. An experimental research design was employed involving ten first-semester EFL students. Data were collected through a syntax mastery test and a writing task designed to measure students’ accuracy in constructing grammatical sentences. Pre-test and post-test scores were analyzed to examine the relationship between syntax mastery and writing performance. The results indicate that students with higher levels of syntax mastery achieved significantly better writing accuracy compared to those with lower mastery. These students demonstrated greater ability to produce grammatically correct and well-structured sentences. The findings underscore the importance of syntax instruction in enhancing EFL learners’ writing accuracy. Consequently, the integration of syntax-focused teaching strategies is recommended to support the development of accurate writing skills in EFL classroom contexts. ABSTRAK Penelitian ini menyelidiki pengaruh penguasaan sintaksis siswa terhadap akurasi menulis dalam konteks Bahasa Inggris sebagai Bahasa Asing (EFL). Akurasi menulis sangat berkaitan dengan penerapan aturan sintaksis yang benar, termasuk struktur kalimat, urutan kata, dan hubungan gramatikal. Desain penelitian eksperimen digunakan dengan melibatkan sepuluh mahasiswa EFL semester pertama. Data dikumpulkan melalui tes penguasaan sintaksis dan tugas menulis yang dirancang untuk mengukur akurasi siswa dalam membangun kalimat yang gramatikal. Skor pre-test dan post-test dianalisis untuk mengkaji hubungan antara penguasaan sintaksis dan performa menulis. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa siswa dengan tingkat penguasaan sintaksis yang lebih tinggi memperoleh akurasi menulis yang secara signifikan lebih baik dibandingkan siswa dengan penguasaan rendah. Siswa tersebut menunjukkan kemampuan lebih besar dalam menghasilkan kalimat yang gramatikal dan tersusun dengan baik. Temuan ini menegaskan pentingnya pembelajaran sintaksis dalam meningkatkan akurasi menulis siswa EFL. Oleh karena itu, integrasi strategi pengajaran yang berfokus pada sintaksis direkomendasikan untuk mendukung pengembangan keterampilan menulis yang akurat dalam konteks kelas EFL.
