In other words, teachers can decide any topics and materials depending on the communication books they possessed and read. Even so, many of them by the end of their study period are still not able to speak English fluently. This research is to provide information needed for the curriculum development and classroom instruction through Needs Analysis (NA). The research questions for this study cover (1) what communication skills and competence are expected by ED UMM students? To answer the following questions, an interpretive research paradigm will be employed in the proposed research. In an interpretive research paradigm, theories are constructed from the data rather than theories preceding the data. The data in this research is the participantsâ goals, reasons, motives, feelings, perspectives, and assumptions and these participant perspectives will be viewed through the lens of their cultural contexts. This approach uses three-stage data collection and analysis, namely: FGD (focus-group interview) with ED students. The findings showed:

For any different objectives of teaching EYL at primary schools in Indonesia, qualified EYL teachers are urgently needed. Pre-service teaching program is expected to provide experience of using proper English language in classroom setting. This case study aimed at describing the first language (L1) instruction used by the pre-service teachers of English for Young Learners (EYL) at the Universitas Muhammadiyah Malang (UMM). The findings depicted that L1 was used as a language of instruction to explain the materials and to clarify the instruction given in L2. It is recommended for the pre-service teachers of EYL to use L2 with demonstration, L2 Context Clues, and L1 translation. Ultimately, the use of L1 in L2 teaching is mandatory to communicate the topic and enhance the students - pre-service teacher interactions. As for meeting the purpose of interaction, the use of L1 should involve actional, conversational, and non-verbal competences. In the long run, the impact of L1 in L2 learning in earlier levels can be recognized from good interpersonal communication in English.

Speaking in good manner is highly advised in Islamic teaching, but this notion had been challenged by socio-cultural values of the kinds if profanity words circulating among Muslim students. As qualitative research, this research aimed to investigate the discourses related to the use of profanity words among Muslim students from the perspective of the Dialectical-Relational Approach (DRA). The first was to discover the most frequent profanity words uttered by Muslim students, the reasons for using profanity words which were classified as propositional and non-propositional, and how DRA perceived the use of profanity words influenced their identity as Muslim. In this research, a questionnaire was chosen as the primary instrument, which consisted of a set of profanity words by Chirs Kirk, and the respondents’ reasoning for using profanity words. The respondents were 14 students from a private Islamic-based university in Indonesia. The result had shown that the students chose two profanity words as the most popular: shit and fuck. Meanwhile, the most dominant reason for using profanity words was to relieve tension which belonged to the non-propositional aspect. DRA perceived the complexity of profanity words among Muslim students and the use of profanity words emphasized the socio-cultural aspect of language, yet, Islamic teaching encouraged the use of good-mannered utterances because it might alter people’s opinion about Islam negatively. Thus, the researchers perceived the use of profanity words as a complex phenomenon that encompasses various contexts.

This is the implication of the new paradigm of English as an International Language (EIL) in which learning English is no longer aimed at forming learners to speak as the native speakers. Therefore, innovations in TEYL is needed to answer the challenges of changing the status of English in Primary Schools (SD) from subject to extra-curricular. Referring to lesson plans developed by pre-service EYL teachers (PSTs), observation and interviews, the innovations in thematic lessons for TEYL were investigated. The findings showed that all lesson plans have been integrating innovations, including character building in accordance with the 2013 curriculum and intercultural competency that are important for language learning. To interact in the classroom, first language (L1) was used with colloquial variation, code-mixing and code-switching as well as translation. In conclusion, the innovative lessons for TEYL has been practiced by prospective primary school English teachers for preparing themselves to teach at the real school setting after their graduation. It is suggested that further research will be carried out at primary schools participated by in-service teachers and focused on each innovation in order to find TEYL innovative models. HIGHLIGHTS: The study recognizes a shift in the paradigm of Teaching English to Young Learners (TEYL) due to the emergence of the new paradigm of English as an International Language (EIL). English for Young Learners (EYL) requires the teachers’ creativity in teaching it. Innovative EYL classes could be characterized by the selection of intelligent themes or topics, ways for delivering new knowledge while giving young learners with context-based English experience, and less demanding evaluation.
