Abstract

The use of tree diagrams serves as a valuable tool for students to grasp the structure of a sentence and conduct analyses based on both its surface and deep structures. Proficiency in creating syntactic tree diagrams can be employed as an indicator of a student's ability to scrutinize sentences and their structures comprehensively. While conducting this research, We found a lot of articles about tree diagrams in syntax. However, we haven't seen many articles that discuss students' challenges and solutions when learning tree diagrams, particularly for teachers. This research used descriptive and qualitative methods. We conducted interviews, both directly or through messages, with a few participants from the same department at a University. In this research, researchers took 6 student participants. Categorization challenges emerge as a central concern, with participants highlighting the difficulty in identifying and categorizing words within a sentence. This underscores the necessity for learners to develop a robust grasp of parts of speech and their respective functions in constructing meaningful tree diagrams

Abstract

This study examines prevalent linguistic inaccuracies encountered by individuals learning the English language, as well as the perceptions and methodologies employed by pre-service educators in addressing these inaccuracies through contrastive analysis. The adopted methodology is qualitative, utilizing contrastive analysis to facilitate a comprehensive understanding of the frequent errors and the approaches that pre-service teachers can utilize to correct them. The results indicate that learners commonly struggle with various elements, including grammatical issues, pronunciation errors, interference from their native language, limited vocabulary, and psychological challenges such as anxiety and diminished self-confidence. Through semi-structured interviews conducted with 20 pre-service teachers, the research pinpointed effective strategies employed, which comprise explicit correction techniques, phonetic drills, thematic vocabulary instruction, and the establishment of a nurturing classroom atmosphere. The findings underscored the necessity for enhanced teacher training, the incorporation of technology, student-centric methodologies, cultural awareness, and ongoing professional development for educators to elevate the effectiveness of language instruction.
