This research employed a library research method, with data collected through reviewing scientific research documents accessed via a digital library. The result show that: 1) the most frequently explored topics by students is: method (146 themes), speaking skills (79 themes), vocabulary (64 themes), teaching aids (61 themes), and reading skills (60 themes). 2) In terms of research method, qualitative descriptive (185 thesis) and quantitative experimental (157 thesis) were predominantly utilized. Moreover, the research and development methodology has attracted increasing attention since 2022, with 20 studies published over the past two years. 3) The study also highlighted several promising areas for future research, such as: the word of wisdom, reading, conversation, rhetoric, morphology, and composition, as well as evaluation, institutional studies, and figure studies. Likewise, there are opportunities to expand research methodologies to include correlational studies, library research, classroom action research, and research and development.]]>
