Abstract

This study examines the critical role that parents play in assisting their children in improving their English-speaking abilities through language learning activities carried out at home using the Narrative Inquiry approach. The research aims to provide a thorough understanding of how parent-child interactions affect language development in addition to formal education. Recognizing the importance of the home environment, the study intends to illuminate the unique contributions parents make to their children's English proficiency, emphasizing the necessity of a thorough approach to language learning. Using in-depth interviews to gather rich, qualitative data, the main technique is narrative inquiry. Parents talk about their experiences and methods for encouraging English speaking in the family. This method enables a detailed investigation of the complex relationships and narratives that emerge in the setting of parent-child language development. Preliminary findings highlight a diverse range of home-based language learning activities, such as interactive dialogues, storytelling, reading English book, watching videos, using online applications, and language-rich routines. The narratives provide insights into the unique strategies parents employ to cultivate their children's language skills, revealing a profound impact on English-speaking abilities.  Therefore, parents play a crucial role in helping their children develop their English-speaking skills.

Abstract

This study explores the attitudes of 91 students at Universitas Advent Indonesia toward English pronunciation in the context of language learning. Using Likert scale questionnaires, the research examines the perceived importance of pronunciation, preferences for pronunciation models, confidence levels, and how cultural identity shapes these attitudes. Students' views on teaching methods, including technology-enhanced instruction and feedback mechanisms, are also analyzed. The findings underscore a strong acknowledgment of pronunciation's role in effective communication, with significant support for interactive and culturally sensitive teaching approaches. Students expressed a preference for pronunciation models that align with their cultural identity, indicating a need for more personalized and contextually relevant instruction. This study provides valuable insights for language educators and curriculum developers, emphasizing the integration of students' cultural backgrounds into pronunciation pedagogy. Pronunciation remains a critical yet often underexplored component of English language learning, particularly in multilingual settings where cultural identity strongly influences learner attitudes. This study investigates the attitudes of 91 students at Universitas Advent Indonesia toward English pronunciation, addressing the broader issue of how cultural factors shape learners’ preferences and confidence in pronunciation. Employing Likert scale questionnaires, the research compares student responses across different ethnic and linguistic
