Abstract

This study investigates the influence of social and cultural factors on the acquisition of English-speaking skills among university students in Indonesia. While previous research has highlighted the importance of cognitive and instructional factors in second language acquisition, relatively few studies have examined the broader sociocultural context of English learning in the Indonesian EFL setting. Using a mixed-methods design, this research involved 33 sixth-semester students of the English Education Program at Universitas HKBP Nommensen, Medan, comprising 8 males and 25 females from Batak Toba and Nias ethnic backgrounds. Data were collected through speaking tests, semi-structured interviews, questionnaires, and classroom observations. The findings reveal that social background factors—including socioeconomic status, access to English courses, and family environment—affect students’ speaking proficiency. Additionally, cultural exposure, including engagement with English media and intercultural experiences, plays a crucial role in enhancing fluency, confidence, and communicative competence. The study concludes that language learning is inseparable from its sociocultural context, emphasizing the need for culturally responsive pedagogy in Indonesian higher education.

Abstract

Memasuki era globalisasi dan informasi, bangsa Indonesia dituntut mampu bersaing dengan bangsa-bangsa lain dalam berbagai bidang kehidupan. Dalam era tersebut, penguasaan ilmu pengetahuan dan teknologi menjadi suatu keharusan karena dapat menentukan kemampuan suatu bangsa untuk menang dalam persaingan. Keterkaitan global antar bangsa pada masa itu, juga menempatkan bahasa asing pada posisi yang sangat strategis. Bahasa Inggris merupakan salah satu bahasa internasional yang paling umum digunakan dan sangat popular, maka dapat disebut sebagai media komunikasi global. Bahasa ini telah menjadi bahasa internasional secara alamiah seiring dengan kemajuan negara-negara Eropa dan Amerika Serikat.
