Abstract

The study investigates the language constraints faced by the community around Marisa Beach at Nias Utara, Indonesia, which prevent them from effectively promoting and developing the tourist destination in their area. Marisa Beach is a popular tourist destination, but it currently lacks visitors due to inadequate promotion by the local community. The research focuses on identifying the key language-related challenges that hinder the community's ability to promote their tourist destination. The literature review highlights the importance of community involvement in tourism development and the language barriers that can impede such participation. The findings of this study are expected to provide insights into the language-related challenges that communities face in promoting tourism. The researchers aim to understand the specific difficulties the Marisa Beach community experiences in terms of promotional language, communication structures, and promoting knowledge. The study's conclusions may inform strategies to support the community in overcoming these language constraints and actively participating in the development and promotion of their local tourist destination.

Abstract

Speaking skills in English are essential for students to communicate effectively in a global environment. However, many students struggle with speaking English due to a lack of engagement, confidence, and exposure to real-life communication situations. This study aims to analyze the impact of storytelling on students' engagement in speaking English and to identify the challenges they face when using this method. This research employs a qualitative approach, using observation, interviews, and questionnaires as data collection instruments. The participants are 24 eighth-grade students from SMP Negeri 1 Sitolu Ori, selected through purposive sampling. The findings reveal that storytelling enhances students' engagement in speaking English, boosts their confidence, and improves pronunciation and fluency. However, students face challenges such as difficulties in structuring stories, pronouncing complex words, and nervousness when speaking in front of the class. These findings indicate that storytelling can be an effective strategy for improving students' engagement in speaking English, but it needs to be supported by continuous practice and teacher guidance.
