Abstract

Effective presentation communication skills are essential for English education students, as they play a significant role in academic success and professional development. This study explores key components that contribute to effective presentation skills, including confidence in speaking, clear and effective use of English, good pronunciation and intonation, logical responses to questions, audience interaction, and the use of technology. Using a qualitative research approach, in-depth interviews were conducted with 20 English education students at the University of Nias. The findings highlight the challenges students face, such as nervousness, language difficulties, and limited audience engagement strategies. The results suggest that practicing regularly, receiving feedback, watching professional presentation videos, joining public speaking clubs, using voice/video recordings, and improving vocabulary through daily conversations are effective strategies for enhancing presentation skills. These findings provide valuable insights for curriculum development and future training programs aimed at equipping students with the necessary skills to deliver impactful presentations. Future research can explore the impact of specific teaching methodologies on students’ presentation effectiveness.

Abstract

Effective study time management is crucial for academic success, particularly for students who must balance coursework, assignments, and extracurricular activities. However, many students struggle with managing their time efficiently, leading to increased stress and lower academic performance. This study aims to analyze the factors influencing study time management among Semester V Class B students of the English Education Study Program at the University of Nias. Using a qualitative approach with a descriptive-analytical method, this research explores factors affecting students’ ability to organize and manage their study time effectively. The findings indicate that motivation and self-discipline are the dominant factors, while the learning environment and support from lecturers and peers serve as significant influences. Additionally, challenges such as technological distractions, heavy academic loads, and extracurricular commitments hinder students' time management. To address these issues, students commonly use scheduling and prioritization techniques. The study concludes that universities should provide targeted guidance and training on effective time management strategies to enhance students’ academic performance and overall well-being.
