Abstract

Kemampuan menulis korespondensi resmi dalam bahasa Inggris menjadi keterampilan penting bagi individu yang ingin melanjutkan studi atau mengajukan beasiswa ke luar negeri. Sayangnya, banyak calon pelamar yang masih mengalami kesulitan dalam menyusun surat seperti motivation letter, email formal, dan permintaan surat rekomendasi karena kurangnya pemahaman tentang struktur, gaya bahasa, dan tujuan komunikatif dari surat tersebut. Menjawab kebutuhan tersebut, kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini diselenggarakan dalam bentuk pelatihan daring yang bertujuan untuk meningkatkan keterampilan menulis korespondensi resmi berbahasa Inggris. Pelatihan ini dilaksanakan selama sar hari dan diikuti oleh 35 peserta dari Komunitas Kerukunan Mahasiswa Pinrang. Metode pelaksanaan meliputi penyampaian materi, praktik menulis, dan umpan balik langsung yang dilakukan secara individu maupun kelompok. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan peningkatan yang signifikan pada kemampuan peserta dalam menyusun korespondensi resmi, ditinjau dari aspek struktur, bahasa, dan kejelasan ide. Selain itu, pesertamenyatakan bahwa kegiatan ini relevan, aplikatif, dan memberikan kontribusi nyata terhadap kesiapan mereka dalam proses aplikasi studi internasional. Pelatihan ini tidak hanya meningkatkan keterampilan teknis menulis, tetapi juga menumbuhkan kepercayaan diri peserta dalam berkomunikasi secara profesional. Diharapkan program serupa dapat diadakan secaraberkelanjutan dengan cakupan materi yang lebih luas, seperti penulisan personal statement dan simulasi wawancara, guna mendukung kesiapan generasi muda dalam mengakses peluang pendidikan global.

Abstract

This research examines the strategies used by Business English communication students in mastering new vocabulary within the English for Specific Purposes (ESP) course. Using a qualitative research design, data were collected through interviews and questionnaires. The findings indicate that cognitive strategies such as constructing sentences or paragraphs, extensive reading, and watching movies or listening to music help students gain a deeper and more natural understanding of vocabulary usage, thereby strengthening long-term retention. As a result, these strategies are employed by the majority of Business English Communication students to master new vocabulary in the ESP course.Meanwhile, memory strategies, such as mnemonics and flashcards, have proven effective in enhancing short-term memory, enabling students to quickly memorize technical terms. Group discussions, as a social strategy, also have a positive impact by providing an interactive learning environment that enhances contextual understanding and builds confidence in using academic vocabulary.Furthermore, this research highlights that the effectiveness of each strategy depends on its alignment with students' individual needs and learning styles. A well-suited combination of strategies can enrich vocabulary learning experiences in the ESP course, improving memory, comprehension, and the application of vocabulary in professional contexts. Ultimately, these strategies prepare students to succeed in future academic and professional environments.
