Abstract

This study aims to describe the strategies used by teachers in teaching speaking skills at SMP Negeri 3 Lolofitu Moi and to determine how teachers choose the strategies used in the learning process. This study uses a qualitative research method with a descriptive qualitative type. Research data were obtained through observation, interviews, and documentation of English teachers and students. The research instruments consisted of observation sheets and interview guidelines used to collect information related to the application of speaking learning strategies in the classroom. The collected data were analyzed using data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing techniques. The results showed that the dominant strategies used by teachers were group discussions and role-playing. These strategies were proven to encourage students to be more active, confident, and able to express their ideas in English. Teachers also provided clear instructions, practical examples, and created a supportive classroom atmosphere so that students were more motivated to speak. In addition, teachers adjusted learning strategies according to student needs and classroom conditions. However, the variety of strategies was still limited, so it was recommended that teachers develop other strategies such as storytelling, simple debates, language games, and digital media to enrich the learning experience of students.

Abstract

English instruction at UPTD SMP Negeri 4 Gunungsitoli Selatan in 2025. Despite English's global relevance, many students exhibit varying degrees of enthusiasm, limiting their academic commitment and achievement. The primary objectives of this study are to identify intrinsic and extrinsic motivators, analyze their impact on student engagement, and give recommendations to improve the learning experience. Data were collected through a qualitative study methodology that included questionnaires and semi-structured interviews with 29 seventh-grade students. A thematic analysis of the data found that students have a generally positive attitude toward studying English, with key motivators being a desire to communicate with foreigners and further their education abroad. However, obstacles such as pronunciation issues and variable levels of involvement were identified. The findings highlight the value of excellent teaching approaches and supportive peer interactions in creating an engaging learning environment.Student Motivation
