This study examines the effectiveness of a cognitive approach in teaching pronunciation through tongue twisters among seventh-grade students at SMPTK Diaspora, Sorong. Indonesian EFL learners often face pronunciation problems caused by first language interference and limited exposure to authentic English sounds. Previous studies have shown that tongue twisters improve pronunciation accuracy, but few have explored how they support pronunciation from a cognitive perspective. This research aims to determine whether tongue twisters can enhance students’ pronunciation by engaging attention, memory, and self-monitoring processes. A pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest–posttest model was employed. The participants were 26 seventh-grade students selected from a total population of 37. Data were collected through pronunciation tests administered before and after treatment and analyzed using the Paired Sample T-test in SPSS 20. The results showed a significant improvement in students’ pronunciation scores, with the mean rising from 46.92 in the pretest to 65.88 in the posttest (p = 0.001 < 0.05). This indicates that tongue twister practice had a positive effect on pronunciation performance. The findings suggest that tongue twisters help learners internalize correct sound patterns by promoting focused attention, memory activation, and articulatory awareness. Applying a cognitive approach through tongue twisters effectively improves students’ pronunciation and creates an engaging learning experience. This study contributes to pronunciation pedagogy by linking cognitive theory with classroom practice and offers practical insights for teachers in similar EFL contexts.

This research explores the adaptation of the English Language Teaching (ELT) curriculum to address the significant resource limitations faced in rural areas, specifically in Sorong, West Papua, Indonesia. The study aims to investigate how teachers creatively modify lesson plans, instructional methods, and assessment strategies in environments lacking essential resources, such as teaching materials, technological tools, and professional development opportunities and the impact on the students' outcomes. Using a qualitative multi-case study approach, data were gathered through semi-structured interviews, classroom observations, and document analysis over a two-month period. The findings reveal that teachers employed various strategies to cope with resource constraints, such as simplifying lesson content, utilizing locally available materials, and incorporating peer collaboration in the classroom. These adaptations resulted in enhanced student participation and improvements in oral communication skills. However, significant challenges were observed in fostering literacy, particularly reading and writing skills, due to the scarcity of instructional resources and limited teacher training. Moreover, while short-term engagement and speaking proficiency increased, the long-term impacts on overall English proficiency remained limited. The study underscores the need for comprehensive professional development for rural teachers and better access to teaching materials to fully bridge the educational gap between urban and rural students. Ultimately, these findings offer valuable insights for future curriculum development aimed at improving language education in resource-limited settings.
