Abstract

Enhancing English speaking skills is crucial for global communication, particularly at Santi Witya Serong School in Thailand. This study implements the English Competition Program as an innovative strategy distinct from conventional learning by incorporating competition-based and interactive activities. The research examines its effectiveness in improving students’ speaking skills and confidence. Applying Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) theory, the program utilizes school resources—teachers, students, and learning culture—as key assets for language development. Using a qualitative approach, data were collected through observations, interviews with teachers, and document analysis of competition results. The program includes three competitions: spelling bee for grades 1–2, guessing vocabulary for grades 3–4, and introduction speaking for grades 5–6. The findings indicate that competition-based learning significantly improves English proficiency in the form of speaking and confidence. The study recommends continuous implementation and evaluation to optimize the program. This study presents a novel approach, demonstrating that competition-driven methods can effectively enhance students’ communication skills.

Abstract

Drilling may be considered a method of the past within teaching approaches, but it can still be popular in the EFL context, particularly for Teaching English to Young Learners (TEYL). Existing literatures present varying perspectives on the effectiveness of drilling, indicating a need to explore a more comprehensive understanding. This study aims to generally identify the types, advantages, and challenges of drilling used in Indonesian TEYL classrooms to better understand if the drilling is still relevant in the current teaching context. Employing a qualitative approach through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR), data were analyzed from 14 articles selected through predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. The articles were retrieved using a selection process through Publish or Perish (PoP) from the Google Scholar database and published between 2014 and 2024. Data were analyzed thematically using a table analysis through coding and categorization, covering six main types of drilling: repetition drill, question-and-answer drill, chain drill, single-slot substitution drill, multiple-slot substitution drill, and snowball drilling. The advantages of drilling include increasing student engagement, improving vocabulary mastery, enhancing pronunciation and speaking skills, and supporting learning through multimedia integration. Conversely, challenges involve pronunciation errors, initial lack of engagement, difficulty in memorizing vocabulary, and boredom among advanced learners. The findings suggest that drilling should be integrated with interactive and contextual learning strategies to address the challenges and enhance its effectiveness in modern TEYL settings within the EFL context.
